New Testament

Ezekiel 35:6-14 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

6. therefore as I live," declares the Lord God, "I will give you over to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you; since you have not hated bloodshed, therefore bloodshed will pursue you.

7. I will make Mount Seir a waste and a desolation and I will cut off from it the one who passes through and returns.

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

9. I will make you an everlasting desolation and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

10. "Because you have said, 'These two nations and these two lands will be mine, and we will possess them,' although the Lord was there,

11. therefore as I live," declares the Lord God, "I will deal with you according to your anger and according to your envy which you showed because of your hatred against them; so I will make Myself known among them when I judge you.

12. Then you will know that I, the Lord, have heard all your revilings which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel saying, 'They are laid desolate; they are given to us for food.'

13. And you have spoken arrogantly against Me and have multiplied your words against Me; I have heard it."

14. Thus says the Lord God, "As all the earth rejoices, I will make you a desolation.
