1. And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
2. `Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
3. and thou hast said to it: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, O mount Seir, And have stretched out My hand against thee, And made thee a desolation and an astonishment.
4. Thy cities a waste I make, and thou art a desolation, And thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.
5. Because of thy having an enmity age-during, And thou dost saw the sons of Israel, By the hands of the sword, In the time of their calamity, In the time of the iniquity of the end:
6. Therefore, I live--an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Surely for blood I do appoint thee, And blood doth pursue thee, If blood thou hast not hated, Blood also doth pursue thee.
7. And I have given mount Seir for a desolation and an astonishment, And have cut off from it him who is passing over and him who is returning,
8. And filled his mountains with his wounded, Thy hills, and thy valleys, and all thy streams, The pierced of the sword fall into them.
9. Desolations age-during I make thee, And thy cities do not return, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
