PROPHECY AGAINST MOUNT SEIR
Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
“Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir (Edom), and prophesy against it
and say to it, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “Behold, Mount Seir, I am against you, And I will stretch out My hand against you And make you completely desolate.
“I will destroy your cities And you will become a wasteland. Then you shall know [without any doubt] that I am the LORD.
Because you [descendants of Esau] have had an everlasting hatred [for Jacob (Israel)] and you handed over the sons of Israel to the power of the sword at the time of their tragedy, at the time of their final punishment [the Babylonian conquest], [Eze_25:12-14; Eze_36:5]
therefore, as I live,” says the Lord GOD, “I will hand you over to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you since you have not hated bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.
I will make Mount Seir (Edom) a ruin and a desolate wasteland and I will cut off from it the one who passes through it and the one who returns.
I will fill its mountains with its slain; those killed by the sword will fall on your hills, and in your valleys, and in all your ravines.
I will make you an everlasting desolation and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know [without any doubt] that I am the LORD.
“Because you [descendants of Esau] have said, ‘These two nations [Israel and Judah] and these two lands shall be mine, and we will take possession of them,’ although the LORD was there,
therefore, as I live,” says the Lord GOD, “I will deal with you in accordance with the anger and envy you showed because of your hatred for them; and I will make Myself known among them [as Judge] when I judge and punish you.
Then you will know [without any doubt] that I am the LORD, and that I have heard all your scornful speeches which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‘They have been made a wasteland; they have been given to us as food.’
So you have boasted and spoken arrogantly against Me, and have multiplied your words against Me; I have heard it.”
‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “While the whole earth rejoices, I will make you a wasteland.
As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, so I will do to you; you will be a desolate waste, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, all of it. Then they will know [without any doubt] that I am the LORD.”‘
