MLV(i)
2 I have loved you*, says Jehovah. Yet you* say, How have you loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother, says Jehovah. Yet I loved Jacob,
3 but Esau I hated and made his mountains a desolation and gave his heritage to the jackals of the wilderness.
4 If Edom says, We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places, Jehovah of hosts says thus: They will build, but I will throw down and men will call them the border of wickedness and the people against whom Jehovah has indignation everlasting.
