Ezekiel 35:3-5

New International Reader's Version

³ Tell it, ‘The Lord and King says, “Mount Seir, I am against you. I will reach out my powerful hand against you. I will turn you into a dry and empty desert. ⁴ I will destroy your towns. Your land will become empty. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

⁵ “ ‘ “People of Edom, you have been Israel’s enemies for a long time. You let many Israelites be killed by swords when they were in great trouble. At that time I used Nebuchadnezzar to punish them and destroy them completely.
