THE ORIGINAL BIBLE
for Modern Readers


"Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words . . . and keep the things that are written in it . . ."
Revelation 1:3 "Every Scripture is God-breathed and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." —2 Timothy 3:16-17

"For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart." —Hebrews 4:12

1 Moreover Jehovah’s word came to me, saying, 2 “Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it, 3 and tell it, ‘Thus says the Lord Jehovah: “Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you a desolation and an astonishment.

4 “‘“I will lay your cities waste, and you shall be desolate; and you shall know that I am Jehovah. 5 Because you have had a perpetual hostility, and have 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; 6 therefore, as I live,” says the Lord Jehovah, “I will prepare you for blood, and blood shall pursue you: since you have not hated blood, therefore blood shall pursue you. 7 Thus I will make Mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation; and I will cut off from it him who passes through and him who returns. 8 I will fill its mountains with its slain: in your hills and in your valleys and in all your watercourses they who are slain with the sword shall fall. 9 I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities shall not be inhabited; and you shall know that I am Jehovah.

10 “‘“Because you have said, ‘These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it;’ whereas Jehovah was there: 11 therefore, as I live,” says the Lord Jehovah, “I will do according to your anger, and according to your envy which you have shown out of your hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I shall judge you. 12 You shall know that I, Jehovah, have heard all your insults which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‘They are laid desolate, they have been given us to devour.’ 13 You have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard it.

14 “‘Thus says the Lord Jehovah: “When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate. 15 As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do to you: you shall be desolate, Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.”’”
