Malachi 1:2-5

Malachi 1:2-5

[2] I have loved  you, saith  the LORD.  Yet ye say,  Wherein hast thou loved  us? Was not Esau  Jacob's  brother?  saith  the LORD:  yet I loved  Jacob,  [3] And I hated  Esau,  and laid  his mountains  and his heritage  waste  for the dragons  of the wilderness.  [4] Whereas Edom  saith,  We are impoverished,  but we will return  and build  the desolate places;  thus saith  the LORD  of hosts,  They shall build,  but I will throw down;  and they shall call  them, The border  of wickedness,  and, The people  against whom the LORD  hath indignation  for  ever.  [5] And your eyes  shall see,  and ye shall say,  The LORD  will be magnified  from the border  of Israel.
