1 E veio a mim a palavra do SENHOR, dizendo:
2 Filho do homem, dirige o teu rosto contra o monte Seir, e profetiza contra ele.
3 E dize-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Eis que eu estou contra ti, ó monte Seir, e estenderei a minha mão contra ti, e te farei maior desolação.
4 As tuas cidades farei desertas, e tu serás desolado; e saberás que eu sou o Senhor.
5 Porquanto guardaste inimizade perpétua, e espalhaste os filhos de Israel pelo poder da espada no tempo da sua calamidade e no tempo da iniqüidade final.
6 Por isso vivo eu, diz o Senhor DEUS, que te preparei para sangue, e o sangue te perseguirá; visto que não odiaste o sangue, o sangue te perseguirá.
7 E farei do monte Seir uma extrema desolação, e exterminarei dele o que por ele passar, e o que por ele voltar.
8 E encherei os seus montes dos seus mortos; nos teus outeiros, e nos teus vales, e em todos os teus rios cairão os mortos à espada.
9 Em desolações perpétuas te porei, e as tuas cidades nunca mais serão habitadas; assim sabereis que eu sou o Senhor.
10 Porquanto disseste: As duas nações e as duas terras serão minhas, e as possuiremos, sendo que o Senhor se achava ali.
11 Portanto, vivo eu, diz o Senhor DEUS, que procederei conforme a tua ira, e conforme a tua inveja, de que usaste, no teu ódio contra eles; e me farei conhecer entre eles, quando te julgar.
12 E saberás que eu, o Senhor, ouvi todas as tuas blasfêmias, que proferiste contra os montes de Israel, dizendo: Já estão assolados, a nós nos são entregues por pasto.
13 Assim vos engrandecestes contra mim com a vossa boca, e multiplicastes as vossas palavras contra mim. Eu o ouvi.
14 Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Quando toda a terra se alegrar eu te porei em desolação.
15 Como te alegraste da herança da casa de Israel, porque foi assolada, assim te farei a ti; assolado serás, ó monte Seir, e todo o Edom, sim, todo ele; e saberão que eu sou o Senhor.
1 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Son of man, let your face be turned to Mount Seir, and be a prophet against it,
3 And say to it, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am against you, O Mount Seir, and my hand will be stretched out against you, and I will make you a waste and a cause for wonder.
4 I will make your towns unpeopled and you will be a waste; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
5 Because yours has been a hate without end, and you have given up the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their trouble, in the time of the punishment of the end:
6 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, because you have been sinning through blood, blood will come after you.
7 And I will make Mount Seir a cause for wonder and a waste, cutting off from it all comings and goings.
8 I will make his mountains full of those who have been put to death; in your valleys and in all your water-streams men will be falling by the sword.
9 I will make you waste for ever, and your towns will be unpeopled: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
10 Because you have said, The two nations and the two countries are to be mine, and we will take them for our heritage; though the Lord was there:
11 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, I will do to you as you have done in your wrath and in your envy, which you have made clear in your hate for them; and I will make clear to you who I am when you are judged by me.
12 And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.
13 And you have made yourselves great against me with your mouths, increasing your words against me; and it has come to my ears.
14 This is what the Lord has said: Because you were glad over my land when it was a waste, so will I do to you:
15 You will become a waste, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
