6. therefore, as I live’—it is a declaration of Adonai—‘I will destine you for blood, and bloodshed will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, therefore bloodshed will pursue you.
7. I will make Mount Seir an utter desolation. I will cut off from it all who come and go.
8. I will fill its mountains with its slain; on your hills, your valleys and all your streams those slain by the sword will fall.
9. I will make you everlasting desolations; your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am Adonai.
10. “Because you said: ‘These two nations and these two lands will be mine! We will possess them’—though Adonai was there—
11. “therefore, as I live”—it is a declaration of Adonai—“I will deal with you with the same anger and envy that you had because of your hatred against them. I will make Myself known among them, when I judge you.
12. You will know that I, Adonai, have heard all your blasphemies that you uttered against the mountains of Israel saying: “They are laid desolate—they are given for us to devour!”
13. You have magnified yourselves against Me with your mouth. You multiplied your words against Me. I heard it.”
14. Thus says Adonai Elohim: “When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.
15. As you rejoiced over inheriting the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so I will do to you. You will be desolate, Mount Seir and all Edom—all of it. Then they will know that I am Adonai.”
