Default God hated

Hello all,

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum but I'm trying to find some verses. I could have sworn that somewhere in the Bible, there is a verse that says "God hated". I thought it was God hated Esau...but now I can't find it.

Did I imagine it? I'm in a series of e-mails with one of my sisters about "God's love". And I'm trying to demonstrate through scripture that god ain't so loving.

Any help would be appreciated.

The scriptures about Esau being hated are Mal. 1:3, quoted by Paul in Rom. 9:13. You might also check out Ps. 5:5, 26:5, 31:6, 119:113, 139:21-22. It's mainly an Old Testament phenomena, the only occurrence of the idea in the New Testament is when Paul quotes the Old Testament in Rom. 9:13.
