Malachi 1:1-5 - I Loved Jacob, But Esau I Hated

1 The lifting up the word of Jehovah to Israel by the hand of Malachi.

2 I loved you, said Jehovah. And ye said, In what didst thou love us? Was not Esau brother to Jacob? says Jehovah: and loving Jacob. 3 And I hated Esau, and I will set his mountains a desolation, and his inheritance for the jackals of the desert

4 For Edom will say, We were broken down, and we will turn back and build the wastes; thus said Jehovah of armies: They shall build and I will pull down; and calling to them, The bound of injustice, and, The people with whom Jehovah was very angry, even to forever. 5 And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, Jehovah will be magnified from above to the bound of Israel.
