Ezekiel 35 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Prophecy against Mount Seir

Eze 35:1And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

Eze 35:2Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

Eze 35:3and say unto it, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and I will make thee a desolation and an astonishment.

Eze 35:4

Eze 35:4I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be a desolation: and thou shalt know that I am Jehovah.

Eze 35:5

Eze 35:5Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast given over the children of Israel to the power of the sword, in the time of their calamity, in the time of the iniquity of the end;

Eze 35:6

Eze 35:6therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I will certainly appoint thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee; since thou hast not hated blood, blood shall pursue thee.

Eze 35:7

Eze 35:7And I will make mount Seir a desolation and an astonishment, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth;

Eze 35:8

Eze 35:8and I will fill his mountains with his slain. In thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy water-courses shall they fall that are slain with the sword.

Eze 35:9

Eze 35:9I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not be inhabited: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.

Eze 35:10

Eze 35:10Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it, whereas Jehovah was there:

Eze 35:11

Eze 35:11therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I will even do according to thine anger and according to thine envy, as thou hast done out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I shall judge thee.

Eze 35:12

Eze 35:12And thou shalt know that I Jehovah have heard all thy reproaches, which thou hast uttered against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to devour.

Eze 35:13

Eze 35:13And ye have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard them.

Eze 35:14

Eze 35:14Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee a desolation.

Eze 35:15

Eze 35:15As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolated, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be a desolation, O mount Seir, and all Edom, the whole of it: and they shall know that I am Jehovah.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
