Ezekiel 35:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not [a]return, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
10 Because thou hast said, [b]These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess them (seeing the Lord was [c]there)
11 Therefore as I live, saith the Lord God, I will even do according to thy [d]wrath, and according to thine indignation, which thou hast used in thine hatred against them: and I will make myself known among [e]them, when I have judged thee.
