1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

2 Son of man, set your face against mount Seir, and you shall prophesy about it, and you shall say to it:

3 Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, mount Seir, and I will extend my hand over you, and I will make you desolate and deserted.

4 I will tear down your cities, and you will be deserted. And you shall know that I am the Lord.

5 For you have been a continual adversary, and you have enclosed the sons of Israel, by the hands of the sword, in the time of their affliction, in the time of extreme iniquity.

6 Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will hand you over to blood, and blood will pursue you. Even though you have hated blood, blood will pursue you.

7 And I will make mount Seir desolate and deserted. And I will take away from it the one who departs and the one who returns.

8 And I will fill up its mountains with its slain. In your hills, and in your valleys, as well as in your torrents, the slain will fall by the sword.

9 I will hand you over to everlasting desolations, and your cities will not be inhabited. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.

10 For you have said, ‘Two nations and two lands will be mine, and I will possess them as an inheritance,’ though the Lord was in that place.

11 Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will act in accord with your own wrath, and in accord with your own zeal, by which you have acted with hatred toward them. And I will be made known by them, when I will have judged you.

12 And you shall know that I, the Lord, have heard all your disgraces, which you have spoken about the mountains of Israel, saying: ‘They are deserted. They have been given to us to devour.’

13 And you rose up against me with your mouth, and you disparaged against me with your words. I have heard.

14 Thus says the Lord God: When the whole earth will rejoice, I will reduce you to solitude.

15 Just as you have rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, when it was laid waste, so will I act toward you. You will be laid waste, O mount Seir, with all of Idumea. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
