Malachi 1:2-4
Common English Bible
Love of Jacob
2 I have loved you, says the Lord;
but you say, “How have you loved us?”
Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?
says the Lord.
I loved Jacob, 3 but I rejected Esau.
I turned Esau’s mountains into desolation,
his inheritance into a wilderness for jackals.
4 Edom may say, “We are beaten down, but we will rebuild the ruins”;
but the Lord of heavenly forces proclaims:
They may build, but I will tear them down.
They will call themselves a wicked territory,
the people against whom the Lord rages forever.
