Ezekiel 35:5-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ Because you have had everlasting ^(A)enmity and have ^[a]delivered the sons of Israel to the power of the sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of the ^[b](B)punishment of the end, ⁶ therefore as I live,” declares the Lord God, “I will ^[c]give you over to ^(C)bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you; since you have not hated bloodshed, therefore bloodshed will pursue you. ⁷ I will make Mount Seir a waste and a desolation and I will cut off from it the one who passes through and returns. ⁸ I will ^(D)fill its mountains with its slain; on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines those slain by the sword will ^[d]fall. ⁹ I will make you an everlasting ^(E)desolation and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
