Ezekiel 35:9

Read in context

Ezekiel 35:7–11 · Berean Standard Bible

7 I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste and will cut off from it those who come and go.

8 I will fill its mountains with the slain; those killed by the sword will fall on your hills, in your valleys, and in all your ravines.

9 I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the LORD.

10 Because you have said, ‘These two nations and countries will be ours, and we will possess them,’ even though the LORD was there,

11 therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will treat you according to the anger and jealousy you showed in your hatred against them, and I will make Myself known among them when I judge you.
