¹I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:

¹And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

²"Sine čovječji, okreni lice k Seirskoj gori i prorokuj protiv nje!

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

³Reci joj: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Evo me na te, Goro seirska! Ruku ću podići na te i pretvoriti te u pustoš i pustinju.

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.

⁴Gradove ću tvoje razvaliti i postat ćeš pustinjom. I znat ćeš da sam ja Jahve!

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

⁵Vječnu si mržnju gojila i maču predavala sinove Izraelove kad bi ih nesreća pogodila i kad bi im kucnuo čas posljednjega grijeha.

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;

⁶Zato, života mi moga - riječ je Jahve Gospoda - krvi ću te predati i krv će te progoniti: od krvi nisi prezala, krv će te progoniti!

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.

⁷Od Gore seirske učinit ću pustoš i pustinju, istrijebit ću iz nje polaznika i povratnika.

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

⁸Gore njezine napunit ću truplima: po tvojim brežuljcima, po tvojim dolinama i po tvojim uvalama padat će mačem pokošeni.

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.

⁹Učinit ću od tebe vječnu pustinju, gradovi se tvoji neće napučiti. I znat ćete da sam ja Jahve!'

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

¹⁰Ti reče: 'Ova dva naroda i ove dvije zemlje bit će moji; mi ćemo ih zaposjesti, ako i jest Jahve bio ondje!'

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

¹¹'Zato, života mi moga - riječ je Jahve Gospoda - postupit ću s tobom prema gnjevu i ljubomori s kojom ti postupi u svojoj mržnji s njima! Upoznat ćeš me po tome kako ću ti suditi!

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.

¹²I znat ćeš da sam ja, Jahve, čuo sve tvoje hule što ih izreče na gore Izraelove govoreći: 'Opustješe, nama su dane za hranu!'

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.

¹³Razmetali ste se, protiv mene govorili i gomilali protiv mene riječi; čuo sam ja!'

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

¹⁴Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Na radost sve zemlje, od tebe ću učiniti pustoš.

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

¹⁵Kako si se ti radovala što opustje baština doma Izraelova, tako ću učiniti s tobom: opustjet ćeš, Goro seirska, a s tobom i sav Edom! I znat će se da sam ja Jahve!"

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.
