| 2 | "I have loved you," says Yahweh. But you say, "How have you loved us?" " Is not Esau Jacob's brother?" says Yahweh. "Yet I have loved Jacob | The LORD's love for Israel. Mal.1.2-5 | אָהַבְתִּי אֶתְכֶם אָמַר יְהוָה וַאֲמַרְתֶּם בַּמָּה אֲהַבְתָּנוּ הֲלֹוא־אָח עֵשָׂו לְיַעֲקֹב נְאֻם־יְהוָה וָאֹהַב אֶת־יַעֲקֹב׃ |
| 3 | but I have hated Esau; I have laid waste his hill country and left his heritage to jackals of the desert." | וְאֶת־עֵשָׂו שָׂנֵאתִי וָאָשִׂים אֶת־הָרָיו שְׁמָמָה וְאֶת־נַחֲלָתֹו לְתַנֹּות מִדְבָּר׃ | |
| 4 | If Edom says, "We are shattered but we will rebuild the ruins," Yahweh of hosts says, "They may build, but I will tear down, till they are called the wicked country, the people with whom Yahweh is angry for ever." | כִּי־תֹאמַר אֱדֹום רֻשַּׁשְׁנוּ וְנָשׁוּב וְנִבְנֶה חֳרָבֹות כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֹות הֵמָּה יִבְנוּ וַאֲנִי אֶהֱרֹוס וְקָרְאוּ לָהֶם גְּבוּל רִשְׁעָה וְהָעָם אֲשֶׁר־זָעַם יְהוָה עַד־עֹולָם׃ | |
| 5 | Your own eyes shall see this, and you shall say, "Great is Yahweh, beyond the border of Israel!" | וְעֵינֵיכֶם תִּרְאֶינָה וְאַתֶּם תֹּאמְרוּ יִגְדַּל יְהוָה מֵעַל לִגְבוּל יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ | |
