Malachi 1:2-4

Darby Translation

² I have loved you, saith Jehovah; but ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith Jehovah, and I loved Jacob,

³ and I hated Esau; and made his mountains a desolation, and [gave] his inheritance to the jackals of the wilderness.

⁴ If Edom say, We are broken down, but we will build again the ruined places,—thus saith Jehovah of hosts: They shall build, but I will throw down; and [men] shall call them the territory of wickedness, and the people against whom Jehovah hath indignation for ever.
