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.
