Ezekiel 36:3-5
Legacy Standard Bible
3 therefore prophesy and say, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “[a]For good reason they have made you (A)desolate and bruised you from every side, that you would become a possession of the rest of the nations, and you have been taken up in the [b](B)speech of their tongue and the rumors of the people.”’” 4 Therefore, O (C)mountains of Israel, hear the word of Lord Yahweh. Thus says Lord Yahweh to the mountains and to the hills, to the ravines and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes and to the forsaken cities which have become (D)plunder and objects of scoffing to the rest of the nations which are round about, 5 therefore thus says Lord Yahweh, “Surely in the fire of My (E)jealousy I have spoken against the (F)rest of the nations and against all Edom, who gave My land to themselves as a possession with wholehearted (G)gladness and with scorn of soul, to drive it out for plunder.”
