Malachi 1:2
1 This is the burden of the word of the LORD to Israel through Malachi:
“I have loved you,” says the LORD. But you ask, “How have You loved us?” “Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?” declares the LORD. “Yet Jacob I have loved,
3 but Esau I have hated, and I have made his mountains a wasteland and left his inheritance to the desert jackals.”
