1 I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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!

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

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

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

15 Kako 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!"
