When the Lord your God hands the town over to you, use your swords to kill every man in the town.

So kill all the boys and all the women who have had intercourse with a man.

And the Lord told her,“ The sons in your womb will become two nations. From the very beginning, the two nations will be rivals. One nation will be stronger than the other; and your older son will serve your younger son.”

You have rejected us, O God, and broken our defenses. You have been angry with us; now restore us to your favor.

“ I have always loved you,” says the Lord. But you retort,“ Really? How have you loved us?” And the Lord replies,“ This is how I showed my love for you: I loved your ancestor Jacob,but I rejected his brother, Esau, and devastated his hill country. I turned Esau’s inheritance into a desert for jackals.”

Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will bring me victory over Edom?

You will live by your sword, and you will serve your brother. But when you decide to break free, you will shake his yoke from your neck.”

Edom will be taken over, and Seir, its enemy, will be conquered, while Israel marches on in triumph.A ruler will rise in Jacob who will destroy the survivors of Ir.”
