A Prophecy Against Edom...
1.
And the word of YHWH came to me, saying,
2.
'Son of man, set your face against Mount Se'ir and prophesy against it,
3.
and you shall say to it, 'Thus said the Master YHWH, 'See, O Mount Se'ir, I am against you, and shall stretch out My hand against you, and shall make you a ruin and a waste.
4.
'Your cities I destroy, and let you be a ruin. And you shall know that I am YHWH.
5.
'Because you have had a continuous enmity, and handed the children of Yisra'el over to the power of the sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of the crookedness of the end.
6.
'Therefore, as I live,' declares the Master YHWH, 'I shall appoint you for blood, and let blood pursue you. Since you did not hate blood, therefore blood shall pursue you.
7.
'And I shall make Mount Se'ir a ruin and a waste, and cut off from it the one who leaves and the one who returns,
8.
and shall fill its mountains with the slain, those slain by the sword falling on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.
9.
'I shall make you an everlasting ruin, and your cities uninhabited. And you shall know that I am YHWH.
10.
'Because you have said, 'These two nations and these two lands are mine, and we shall possess them,' although YHWH was there,
11.
therefore, as I live,' declares the Master YHWH, 'I shall do according to your displeasure and according to your envy which you showed in your hatred against them. And I shall make Myself known among them when I judge you.
12.
'And you shall know that I am YHWH. I have heard all your scorns which you have spoken against the mountains of Yisra'el, saying, 'They are laid waste, they were given to us for food.'
13.
'And with your mouth you have boasted against Me and increased your words against Me - I Myself have heard.'
14.
'Thus said the Master YHWH, 'As all the earth is rejoicing I shall make you a ruin.
15.
'As you rejoiced because the inheritance of the house of Yisra'el was laid waste, so I do to you: be a ruin, O Mount Se'ir, as well as all of Edom, all of it! And they shall know that I am YHWH.''
