Ezekiel 35
Christian Standard Bible
A Prophecy against Edom
35 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, face Mount Seir(A) and prophesy against it. 3 Say to it, ‘This is what the Lord God says:
Look! I am against you, Mount Seir.
I will stretch out my hand against you
and make you a desolate waste.(B)
4 I will turn your cities into ruins,
and you will become a desolation.
Then you will know that I am the Lord.
5 “‘Because you maintained a perpetual hatred(C) and gave the Israelites over to the power of the sword in the time of their disaster, the time of final punishment,(D) 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.(E) 7 I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste and will cut off from it those who come and go.(F) 8 I will fill its mountains with the slain;(G) 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.
10 “‘Because you said, “These two nations and two lands will be mine, and we will possess them”—though the Lord was there(H)— 11 therefore, as I live—this is the declaration of the Lord God—I will treat you according to the anger and jealousy you showed in your hatred of them. I will make myself known among them[a] when I judge you. 12 Then you will know that I, the Lord, have heard all the blasphemies you uttered against the mountains of Israel, saying, “They are desolate. They have been given to us to devour!” 13 You boasted against me(I) with your mouth, and spoke many words against me. I heard it myself!
14 “‘This is what the Lord God says: While the whole world rejoices, I will make you a desolation. 15 Just as you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it became a desolation, I will deal the same way with you: you will become a desolation, Mount Seir, and so will all Edom in its entirety. Then they will know that I am the Lord.’

35 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, turn your face toward Mount Seir(A) and prophesy against it. 3 Say to it: This is what the Lord God says:

Ézéchiel 35

35 La parole de l'Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:
2 Fils de l'homme, tourne ta face vers la montagne de Séir, Et prophétise contre elle!
3 Tu lui diras: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Éternel: Voici, j'en veux à toi, montagne de Séir! J'étends ma main sur toi, Et je fais de toi une solitude et un désert.
4 Je mettrai tes villes en ruines, Tu deviendras une solitude, Et tu sauras que je suis l'Éternel.
5 Parce que tu avais une haine éternelle, Parce que tu as précipité par le glaive les enfants d'Israël, Au jour de leur détresse, Au temps où l'iniquité était à son terme,
6 Je suis vivant! dit le Seigneur, l'Éternel, Je te mettrai à sang, et le sang te poursuivra; Puisque tu n'as pas haï le sang, Le sang te poursuivra.
7 Je ferai de la montagne de Séir une solitude et un désert, Et j'en exterminerai les allants et les venants.
8 Je remplirai de morts ses montagnes; Sur tes collines, dans tes vallées, dans tous tes ravins, Tomberont ceux qui seront frappés par l'épée.
9 Je ferai de toi des solitudes éternelles, Tes villes ne seront plus habitées, Et vous saurez que je suis l'Éternel.
10 Parce que tu as dit: Les deux nations, les deux pays seront à moi, Et nous en prendrons possession, Quand même l'Éternel était là,
11 Je suis vivant! dit le Seigneur, l'Éternel, J'agirai avec la colère et la fureur Que tu as montrées, dans ta haine contre eux; Et je me ferai connaître au milieu d'eux, Quand je te jugerai.
12 Tu sauras que moi, l'Éternel, J'ai entendu tous les outrages Que tu as proférés contre les montagnes d'Israël, En disant: Elles sont dévastées, Elles nous sont livrées comme une proie.
13 Vous vous êtes élevés contre moi par vos discours, Vous avez multiplié vos paroles contre moi: J'ai entendu.
14 Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Éternel: Lorsque tout le pays sera dans la joie, Je ferai de toi une solitude.
15 A cause de la joie que tu as éprouvée Parce que l'héritage de la maison d'Israël était dévasté, Je te traiterai de la même manière; Tu deviendras une solitude, montagne de Séir, Toi, et Édom tout entier. Et ils sauront que je suis l'Éternel.
