AFV2020 - Ezekiel - 35

35:1  And the Word of the LORD came to me, saying,

35:2  "Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it.

35:3  And say unto it, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, O Mount Seir, I am against you, and I will stretch out My hand against you, and I will make you a desolation and a waste.

35:4  I will raze your cities, and you shall be desolate, and you shall know that I am the LORD.

35:5  Because you have had a perpetual hatred, and have delivered the children of Israel unto the power of the sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of their final punishment,

35:6  Therefore, as I live," says the Lord GOD, "I will prepare you for blood, and blood shall pursue you. Since you have not hated blood, even blood shall pursue you.

35:7  Thus I will make Mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it the one passing through, and the one returning.

35:8  And I will fill his mountains with his slain. In your hills, and your valleys, and all your rivers, those slain with the sword shall fall in them.

35:9  I will make you a perpetual desolation forever, and your cities shall not be inhabited. And you shall know that I am the LORD.

35:10  Because you have said, 'These two nations and these two lands shall be mine, and we shall possess it;' yet the LORD was there;

35:11  Therefore, as I live," says the Lord GOD, "I will even do according to your anger and according to your envy which you have shown out of your hatred against them. And I will make Myself known among them when I have judged you.

35:12  And you shall know that I am the LORD. I have heard all your blasphemies which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, 'Because they are laid desolate, they are given to us to consume.'

35:13  So with your mouth you have boasted yourself against Me, and have multiplied your words against Me. I have heard them."

35:14  Thus says the Lord GOD, "The whole earth rejoices when I shall make you a desolation.

35:15  As you rejoiced at the inheritance of the house of Israel because of its desolation, so I will do unto you. You shall be a desolation, O Mount Seir and all Idumea, even all of it. And they shall know that I am the LORD." ’ ”
