⁵“Because you have had everlasting ^aenmity and have ¹delivered the sons of Israel to the power of the sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of the ²^bpunishment of the end,

⁶therefore as I live,” declares the Lord God, “I will ¹give you over to ^abloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you; since you have not hated bloodshed, therefore bloodshed will pursue you.

⁷“I will make Mount Seir a waste and a desolation and I will cut off from it the one who passes through and returns.

⁸“I will ^afill its mountains with its slain; on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines those slain by the sword will ¹fall.

⁹“I will make you an everlasting ^adesolation and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
