Ezekiel 35

KING JAMES BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,	1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,	2 “Son of man, set your face against mount Seir, and you shall prophesy about it, and you shall say to it:
3 And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate.	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 lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the LORD.	4 I will tear down your cities, and you will be deserted. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
5 Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:	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 Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.	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 Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.	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 his mountains with his slain men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.	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 make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.	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 Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the LORD was there:	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 Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will even do according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged thee.	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 thou shalt know that I am the LORD, and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.	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 Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard them.	13 And you rose up against me with your mouth, and you disparaged against me with your words. I have heard.
14 Thus saith the Lord GOD; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate.	14 Thus says the Lord God: When the whole earth will rejoice, I will reduce you to solitude.
15 As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, even all of it: and they shall know that I am the LORD.	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.”
