1 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it,
3 and say to it, Thus says the Lord God: I am against you, O Mount Seir, and I will stretch out My hand against you, and I will make you a desolation and a waste.
4 I will lay your cities waste, and you shall become a desolation. Then you shall know that I am the Lord.
5 Because you have had a perpetual hatred and have delivered the sons of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the punishment of the end,
6 therefore, as I live, says the Lord God, I will prepare you for bloodshed, and bloodshed shall pursue you. Since you have not hated bloodshed, therefore blood shall pursue you.
7 Thus I will make Mount Seir a desolation and a waste, and cut off from it the one who passes through and the one who returns.
