Malachi 1:3-5

New Life Version

³ but I have hated Esau. I have laid waste his mountains and have given his riches to the wild dogs of the desert.” ⁴ Edom may say, “We have been destroyed, but we will return and build our cities again.” But the Lord of All says, “They may build, but I will tear down. They will be called the sinful land, the people with whom the Lord is angry forever.” ⁵ You will see this with your own eyes and say, “The Lord is great even outside the land of Israel!”
