¹Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,

¹Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

²Mwanakomana womunhu, rinzira chiso chako kugomo reSeiri, uporofite pamusoro paro,

²Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

³uti kwariri, zanzi naIshe Jehovha, Tarira, ndine mhaka newe, iwe gomo reSeiri, ndichatambanudzira ruoko rwangu kwauri, ndichakuita dongo nechishamiso.

³and tell it, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: 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.

⁴Ndichaparadza maguta ako, iwe uchava dongo; zvino uchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.

⁴I will lay your cities waste, and you shall be desolate; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

⁵nekuti wakavenga vana vaIsiraeri nokuvenga kusingaperi, ukavaisa pasimba romunondo nenguva yenjodzi yavo, nenguva yezvakaipa zvokupedzisira;

⁵Because you have had a perpetual enmity, 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;

⁶naizvozvo noupenyu hwangu; ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha, ndichakugadzirira ropa, ropa richakuteverera; zvausina kuvenga ropa, ropa richakuteverera.

⁶therefore, as I live, says the Lord Yahweh, I will prepare you for blood, and blood shall pursue you: since you have not hated blood, therefore blood shall pursue you.

⁷Saizvozvo ndichaita gomo reSeiri chishamiso nedongo; ndichaparadza mariri vanofamba napo navanodzoka napo.

⁷Thus will I make Mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation; and I will cut off from it him who passes through and him who returns.

⁸Ndichazadza makomo aro navanhu varo vakaurayiwa; muzvikomo zvako nomumipata yako napahova dzako dzose ndipo pachawa vakauyirawa nomunondo.

⁸I will fill its mountains with its slain: in your hills and in your valleys and in all your watercourses shall they fall who are slain with the sword.

⁹Ndichakuita dongo nokusingaperi, maguta ako haangagarwi; zvino muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.

⁹I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities shall not be inhabited; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

¹⁰Zvawakati, Marudzi awa maviri nenyika idzi mbiri zvichava zvangu, zvichava nhaka yedu, kunyange Jehovha akanga aripo;

¹⁰Because you have said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas Yahweh was there:

¹¹naizvozvo noupenyu hwangu ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha ndichaita zvakafanira kutsamwa kwako, uye zvakafanira godo rako rawakavaitira nokuvenga kwako; zvino ini ndichazvizivisa pakati pavo, kana ndichikutonga iwe.

¹¹therefore, as I live, says the Lord Yahweh, 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.

¹²lwe uchaziva kuti ini Jehovha ndakanzwa kumhura kwako kose kwawakataura pamusoro pamakomo aIsiraeri, uchiti, Akaparadzwa, takaapiwa isu zvive zvokudya zvedu.

¹²You shall know that I, Yahweh, 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.

¹³Makazvikudza kwandiri nemiromo yenyu, makawanza mashoko enyu kwandiri; ndazvinzwa.

¹³You have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard it.

¹⁴Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha, Kana nyika yose ichifara, ndichakuita iwe dongo.

¹⁴Thus says the Lord Yahweh: When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.

¹⁵Sezvawakafara pamusoro penhaka yeimba yaIsiraeri, nemhaka yokuti yakaitwa dongo, saizvozvo ndichakuitirawo; uchava dongo, iwe gomo reSeiri, neEdhomu rose, izvo zvose zvaro; zvino vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.

¹⁵As 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 Yahweh.
