* The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi . * 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 , * And I hated Esau , and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness . * 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 . * And your eyes shall see , and ye shall say , The LORD will be magnified from the border of Israel .
