Ezekiel 35

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 The word of ADONAI came to me:

2 "Human being, turn your face against Mount Se'ir; prophesy against it,

3 and say that Adonai ELOHIM says, 'I am against you, Mount Se'ir. I will stretch out my hand against you and make you utterly desolate.

4 I will make your cities ruins and make you an utter waste, and you will know that I am ADONAI.

5 Because of your long-standing hatred, you put the people of Isra'el to the sword at their time of calamity, at the time of final iniquity.

6 Therefore, as I live,' Adonai ELOHIM swears, 'I will prepare you for blood. Blood will pursue you. You intensely hate your own blood [relatives]; therefore blood will pursue you.

7 Yes, I will make Mount Se'ir utterly desolate, cutting off from it anyone passing through or returning.

8 I will fill his mountains with his slain; in your hills and valleys and in all your ravines will fall those slain by the sword.

9 I will turn you into perpetual ruins; your cities will not return; and you will know that I am ADONAI.

10 "'Because you say, "These two nations, these two countries, will be mine; we will take possession of them," even though ADONAI is there;

11 therefore, as I live,' swears Adonai ELOHIM, 'I will deal with you as your anger and envy arising from your hatred deserve; and I will make myself known among them when I judge you.

12 You will know that I, ADONAI, have heard all your blasphemous talk against the mountains of Isra'el, such as, "They are desolated, they are given to us to devour."

13 Moreover, you have boasted against me with your mouths, speaking more and more against me - I have heard it.'

14 Here is what Adonai ELOHIM says: 'To the joy of all the land, I will desolate you.

15 Since you rejoiced over possessing the house of Isra'el, because it was desolate, that is what I will do to you - you will be desolate, Mount Se'ir and all Edom, all of it. Then they will know that I am ADONAI.'

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 Son of man, let your face be turned to Mount Seir, and be a prophet against it,

3 And say to it, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Mount Seir, and my hand will be stretched out against you, and I will make you a waste and a cause for wonder.

4 I will make your towns unpeopled and you will be a waste; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

5 Because yours has been a hate without end, and you have given up the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their trouble, in the time of the punishment of the end:

6 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, because you have been sinning through blood, blood will come after you.

7 And I will make Mount Seir a cause for wonder and a waste, cutting off from it all comings and goings.

8 I will make his mountains full of those who have been put to death; in your valleys and in all your water-streams men will be falling by the sword.

9 I will make you waste for ever, and your towns will be unpeopled: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

10 Because you have said, The two nations and the two countries are to be mine, and we will take them for our heritage; though the Lord was there:

11 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, I will do to you as you have done in your wrath and in your envy, which you have made clear in your hate for them; and I will make clear to you who I am when you are judged by me.

12 And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.

13 And you have made yourselves great against me with your mouths, increasing your words against me; and it has come to my ears.

14 This is what the Lord has said: Because you were glad over my land when it was a waste, so will I do to you:

15 You will become a waste, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
