1 The word of the Lord came to me:
2 “Son of man, turn your face toward Mount Seir and prophesy against it.
3 Say to it: This is what the Lord God says:Look! I am against you, Mount Seir.I will stretch out My hand against youand make you a desolate waste.
4 I will turn your cities into ruins,and you will become a desolation.Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
5 “Because you maintained an ancient hatred and handed over the Israelites to the power of the sword in the time of their disaster, the time of final punishment,
6 therefore, as I live” — this is the declaration of the Lord God — “I will destine you for bloodshed, and it will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, it will pursue you.
7 I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste and will cut off from it those who come and go.
