Malachi 1:1 - Malachi 1:5

The Word of the Lord to Israel by Malach: I loved Jacob, but Esau I hated

A revelation, The LORD's word to Israel by Malachi.
"I have loved you," says The LORD.Yet you say, "How have you loved us?""Wasn't Esau Jacob's brother?" says The LORD, "Yet I loved Jacob;
but Esau I hated, and made his mountains a desolation, and gave his heritage to the jackals of the wilderness."
Whereas Edom says, "We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places"; the LORD of Hosts says, "They shall build, but I will throw down; and men will call them 'The Wicked Land,' even the people against whom the LORD shows wrath forever."
Your eyes will see, and you will say, "The LORD is great-even beyond the border of Israel!"
