Ezekiel 35 — GMV
35
Verse 1
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Verse 2
Son of man, set thy face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
Verse 3
and say to it,
Verse 4
And I will cause desolation in thy cities, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
Verse 5
Because thou hast been a perpetual enemy, and hast laid wait craftily for the house of Israel, with the hand of enemies with a sword, in the time of injustice, at the last:
Verse 6
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, verily thou hast sinned even to blood, therefore blood shall pursue thee.
Verse 7
And I will make Mount Seir a waste, and desolate, and I will destroy from off it men and cattle:
Verse 8
and I will fill thy hills and thy valleys with slain men, and in all thy plains there shall fall in thee men slain with the sword.
Verse 9
I will make thee a perpetual desolation, and thy cities shall not be inhabited anymore: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
Verse 10
Because thou saidst, The two nations and the two countries shall be mine, and I shall inherit them; whereas the Lord is there:
Verse 11
therefore, as I live, saith the Lord, I will even deal with thee according to thine enmity, and I will be made known to thee when I shall judge thee:
Verse 12
and thou shalt know that I am the Lord. I have heard the voice of thy blasphemies, whereas thou hast said, The desert mountains of Israel are given to us for food;
Verse 13
and thou hast spoken swelling words against me with thy mouth: I have heard them.
Verse 14
Thus saith the Lord; When all the earth is rejoicing, I will make thee desert.
Verse 15
Thou shalt be desert, O Mount Seir, and all Edom; and it shall be utterly consumed: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord their God.
