Ezekiel 36:3-5
International Children’s Bible
3 So prophesy and say: ‘This is what the Lord God says: They have made you an empty ruin. They have crushed you from all around. You belonged to the other nations. People talked and whispered against you. 4 So, mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord God. The Lord God speaks to the mountains, hills, ravines and valleys. And he speaks to the empty ruins and abandoned cities that have been robbed and laughed at by the other nations. 5 This is what the Lord God says: I have spoken in hot anger against the other nations. I have spoken against Edom. The Edomites took my land for themselves. They did this with joy and with hate in their hearts. They forced out the people and took their pastureland.’

New International Version
3 Therefore prophesy and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because they ravaged(A) and crushed you from every side so that you became the possession of the rest of the nations and the object of people’s malicious talk and slander,(B) 4 therefore, mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Sovereign Lord: This is what the Sovereign Lord says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys,(C) to the desolate ruins(D) and the deserted(E) towns that have been plundered and ridiculed(F) by the rest of the nations around you(G)— 5 this is what the Sovereign Lord says: In my burning(H) zeal I have spoken against the rest of the nations, and against all Edom, for with glee and with malice in their hearts they made my land their own possession so that they might plunder its pastureland.’(I)
