Ezekiel, 35

1. Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

1. The word of Yahweh came to me,

2. Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

2. "Son of man, set your face against the mountain of Seir, prophesy against it

3. And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O mount Seir, I [am] against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate.

3. and say: Thus says Yahweh: I come to strike you, mountain of Seir! I have stretched out my hand against you and I will make of you a mournful solitude.

4. I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD.

4. I will reduce your towns to ruins, make you a desolation and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

5. Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed [the blood of] the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time [that their] iniquity [had] an end:

5. I know your long-standing enmity and how you handed over the people of Israel to the sword in the day of their disaster, when their sins reached an end.

6. Therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.

6. Because of that, as I live, word of Yahweh, I intend to give you over to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you.

7. Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.

7. I will make of the mountain of Seir a mournful solitude and destroy all who come and go there.

8. And I will fill his mountains with his slain [men]: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.

8. The mountains will be filled with the slain; the victims of the sword will fall on your hills, in your valleys and ravines.

9. I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.

9. I will reduce you to a desolate ruins forever; no longer will your towns be inhabited and then you will know that I am Yahweh.

10. Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the LORD was there:

10. You said: 'These two nations and these two countries will be mine, we shall take possession of them,' and you disregarded Yahweh who was there.

11. Therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will even do according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged thee.

11. Because of that, as I live, declares Yahweh, I will deal with you according to your hatred towards them and I will make myself known among them when I judge you.

12. And thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD, [and that] I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.

12. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, have heard all the insults uttered against the mountains of Israel, such as: 'They are devastated and have been given over to us to be devoured.'

13. Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard [them].

13. For I heard when you boasted against me without restraint.

14. Thus saith the Lord GOD; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate.

14. Thus says Yahweh: When all the earth rejoices, you will be desolate.

15. As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, [even] all of it: and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.

15. Since you rejoiced when the inheritance of Israel became a deserted ruins, that is how I will deal with you. You will become a desert, Mount Seir, and Edom likewise, and people will know that I am Yahweh."

Notas de rodapé:

35:1-9 - God declares judgment against Edom, which rejoiced at Israel's destruction. Edom represents God's enemies, and Edom's fall symbolizes God's justice against those who oppose His people (see also Obadiah 1:10-16 and Jeremiah 49:7-22).

35:10-15 - God promises to completely destroy Edom, showing that He repays according to the actions of the nations. God's justice is impartial, and those who harm His people will experience His judgment (see also Isaiah 34:8-17 and Zephaniah 2:8-10).

Ezekiel chapter 35 prophesies against Mount Seir (Edom). Why does God judge this neighboring nation? This incisive text condemns Edom for its perpetual hatred of Israel and its joy in the face of Judah's calamity. The chapter addresses themes such as divine vengeance, the consequences of hatred, and God's faithfulness to His covenant. Ezekiel 35 also highlights the holiness of God's name. Explore with us five biblical passages that elucidate the eternal principles of this judgment chapter.

Obadiah 1:10: "Because of the violence against your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame; you will be destroyed forever." - This verse echoes the prophecy against Edom in Ezekiel 35, highlighting divine judgment against Israel's enemies.

Psalms 137:7: "Remember, Lord, the Edomites and what they did when Jerusalem was destroyed, when they shouted, 'Destroy it! Demolish it to its foundations!'" - This psalm reflects Edom's hostility toward Israel, a central theme in Ezekiel 35.

Malachi 1:3-4: "But I rejected Esau and made his mountains a desert and left his inheritance to the jackals of the desert. Although Edom says, 'We have been crushed, but we will rebuild the ruins,' thus says the Lord of hosts: They may build, but I will tear down." - This prophecy against Edom complements the message of Ezekiel 35, emphasizing the impossibility of Edom prospering against God's will.

Isaiah 34:5-6: "My sword drank its fill in the heavens; see, she comes down to judge Edom, the people I sentenced to destruction. The sword of the Lord is bathed in blood and covered with fat." - This passage from Isaiah presents a similar judgment against Edom, reinforcing the message of Ezekiel 35.

Jeremiah 49:17-18: "Edom will become an object of astonishment; all who pass by it will be shocked and mock all its wounds. Just as Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed, with the neighboring cities, says the Lord, no one will live there; no one will live in it." - Jeremiah prophesies the destruction of Edom in a similar way to Ezekiel 35, emphasizing the utter desolation.
