Ezekiel 35:5-9

Christian Standard Bible

⁵ “‘Because you maintained a perpetual hatred^(A) and gave the Israelites over to the power of the sword in the time of their disaster, the time of final punishment,^{(B) 6} therefore, as I live—this is the declaration of the Lord God—I will destine you for bloodshed, and it will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, it will pursue you.^{(C) 7} I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste and will cut off from it those who come and go.^{(D) 8} I will fill its mountains with the slain;^(E) those slain by the sword will fall on your hills, in your valleys, and in all your ravines. ⁹ I will make you a perpetual desolation; your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
