Ezekiel 35:5-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁵ “Because you have had a perpetual hatred —and have put the children of Israel to flight by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, when iniquity had ended —

⁶ “therefore, as I live,” says the Lord GOD, “I will prepare you for blood; and blood shall pursue you. Since you have not hated blood, blood shall pursue you.

⁷ “Thus will I make Mount Seir desolate and waste and cut off from it him who passes out and him who returns.

⁸ “And I will fill his mountains with his slain men. In your hills and in your valleys and in all your rivers shall they fall who are killed with the sword.

⁹ “I will make you perpetual desolations; and your cities shall not return. And you shall know that I am the LORD.
