An Oracle Against Mount Seir

35 The word of the Lord came to me. Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it. Say this to it.

This is what the Lord God says. I am against you, Mount Seir. I will stretch out my hand against you and make you a desolate wasteland. I will make your cities ruins, and you will be desolate. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

Because you cherished an ancient hatred and turned the Israelites over to the sword at the time of their disaster, at the time of their final punishment, therefore, as I live, declares the Lord God, I will subject you to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you. Because you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you. I will make Mount Seir a desolate wasteland and cut off from it all those who flee from it and want to return.[a] I will fill its mountains with its slain. On your hills and in your valleys and in all your streambeds, those who have been run through by the sword will fall. I will make you desolate forever, and your cities will not be re-inhabited. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

10 Because you said, “These two nations and these two lands will be mine, and we will possess them, even though the Lord was there,” 11 therefore, as I live, declares the Lord God, I will treat you as you deserve for your anger and for your jealousy which you held against these two nations in your hostility, and I will make myself known among them when I judge you. 12 Then you will know that I, the Lord, have heard all the contemptuous statements that you uttered against the mountains of Israel: “They have been devastated and given to us for food.” 13 With your mouth you made proud boasts against me and heaped up arrogant words against me. I have heard it myself. 14 This is what the Lord God says. While the whole world celebrates, I will make you a desolation. 15 Because you celebrated when you took possession of the house of Israel because it was desolate, so will I deal with you. Mount Seir, you will be desolate, along with all of Edom. Then they will know that I am the Lord.

预言西珥仇害以色列必遭重罚

35 耶和华的话又临到我说: “人子啊,你要面向西珥山发预言攻击他, 对他说:‘主耶和华如此说:西珥山哪,我与你为敌,必向你伸手攻击你,使你荒凉,令人惊骇。 我必使你的城邑变为荒场,成为凄凉,你就知道我是耶和华。 因为你永怀仇恨,在以色列人遭灾、罪孽到了尽头的时候,将他们交于刀剑, 所以主耶和华说:我指着我的永生起誓,我必使你遭遇流血的报应,罪[a]必追赶你。你既不恨恶杀人流血,所以这罪必追赶你。 我必使西珥山荒凉,令人惊骇,来往经过的人我必剪除。 我必使西珥山满有被杀的人,被刀杀的必倒在你小山和山谷,并一切的溪水中。 我必使你永远荒凉,使你的城邑无人居住,你的民就知道我是耶和华。

10 ‘因为你曾说“这二国这二邦必归于我,我必得为业”(其实耶和华仍在那里), 11 所以主耶和华说:我指着我的永生起誓,我必照你的怒气和你从仇恨中向他们所发的嫉妒待你。我审判你的时候,必将自己显明在他们中间。 12 你也必知道我耶和华听见了你的一切毁谤,就是你攻击以色列山的话说:‘这些山荒凉,是归我们吞灭的。’ 13 你们也用口向我夸大,增添与我反对的话,我都听见了。 14 主耶和华如此说:全地欢乐的时候,我必使你荒凉。 15 你怎样因以色列家的地业荒凉而喜乐,我必照你所行的待你。西珥山哪,你和以东全地必都荒凉,你们就知道我是耶和华。’

A Prophecy Against Edom

35 The word of the Lord came to me: “Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir;(A) prophesy against it and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand(B) against you and make you a desolate waste.(C) I will turn your towns into ruins(D) and you will be desolate. Then you will know that I am the Lord.(E)

“‘Because you harbored an ancient hostility and delivered the Israelites over to the sword(F) at the time of their calamity,(G) the time their punishment reached its climax,(H) therefore as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, I will give you over to bloodshed(I) and it will pursue you.(J) Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you. I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste(K) and cut off from it all who come and go.(L) I will fill your mountains with the slain; those killed by the sword will fall on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.(M) I will make you desolate forever;(N) your towns will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the Lord.(O)

10 “‘Because you have said, “These two nations and countries will be ours and we will take possession(P) of them,” even though I the Lord was there, 11 therefore as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, I will treat you in accordance with the anger(Q) and jealousy you showed in your hatred of them and I will make myself known among them when I judge you.(R) 12 Then you will know that I the Lord have heard all the contemptible things you have said against the mountains of Israel. You said, “They have been laid waste and have been given over to us to devour.(S) 13 You boasted(T) against me and spoke against me without restraint, and I heard it.(U) 14 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: While the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.(V) 15 Because you rejoiced(W) when the inheritance of Israel became desolate, that is how I will treat you. You will be desolate, Mount Seir,(X) you and all of Edom.(Y) Then they will know that I am the Lord.’”
