Malachi 1:3-5
New Catholic Bible
3 Was not Esau Jacob’s brother? asks the Lord.
Even so, I loved Jacob but I hated Esau.
I reduced his hill country into a wasteland
and made his heritage into a desert for jackals.
4 When Edom says, “We have been crushed,
but we will rebuild the ruins,”
thus says the Lord of hosts:
They may build, but I will demolish.
They will be called a country of wickedness,
the people with whom the Lord is angry forever.
5 Your own eyes will see this, and you will say,
“Great is the Lord,
even beyond the borders of Israel.”
