This is what the LORD says:“ Because Edom has committed three crimes– make that four!– I will not revoke my decree of judgment. He chased his brother with a sword; he wiped out his allies. In his anger he tore them apart without stopping to rest; in his fury he relentlessly attacked them.

Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom:“ Thus says your brother Israel:‘ You know all the hardships we have experienced,how our ancestors went down into Egypt, and we lived in Egypt a long time, and the Egyptians treated us and our ancestors badly.So when we cried to the LORD, he heard our voice and sent a messenger, and has brought us up out of Egypt. Now we are here in Kadesh, a town on the edge of your country.Please let us pass through your country. We will not pass through the fields or through the vineyards, nor will we drink water from any well. We will go by the King’s Highway; we will not turn to the right or the left until we have passed through your region.’”But Edom said to him,“ You will not pass through me, or I will come out against you with the sword.”Then the Israelites said to him,“ We will go along the highway, and if we or our cattle drink any of your water, we will pay for it. We will only pass through on our feet, without doing anything else.”But he said,“ You may not pass through.” Then Edom came out against them with a large and powerful force.So Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border; therefore Israel turned away from him.

I will turn you into a perpetual desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the LORD.

Remember, O LORD, what the Edomites did on the day Jerusalem fell. They said,“ Tear it down, tear it down, right to its very foundation!”

You have cut short his youth, and have covered him with shame.( Selah)

So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing his father had given to his brother. Esau said privately,“ The time of mourning for my father is near; then I will kill my brother Jacob!”

‘ We are ashamed because we have been insulted. Our faces show our disgrace. For foreigners have invaded the holy rooms in the LORD’s temple.’

and rejected Esau. I turned Esau’s mountains into a deserted wasteland and gave his territory to the wild jackals.”Edom says,“ Though we are devastated, we will once again build the ruined places.” So the LORD who rules over all responds,“ They indeed may build, but I will overthrow. They will be known as the land of evil, the people with whom the LORD is permanently displeased.

When my enemies see this, they will be covered with shame. They say to me,“ Where is the LORD your God?” I will gloat over them. Then they will be trampled down like mud in the streets.

Yes, they devise a unified strategy; they form an alliance against you.It includes the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia and the inhabitants of Tyre.Even Assyria has allied with them, lending its strength to the descendants of Lot.( Selah)Do to them as you did to Midian– as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River!

My accusers will be covered with shame, and draped in humiliation as if it were a robe.

For I suffer humiliation for your sake and am thoroughly disgraced.

I will humiliate his enemies, and his crown will shine.

For I solemnly swear,” says the LORD,“ that Bozrah will become a pile of ruins. It will become an object of horror and ridicule, an example to be used in curses. All the towns around it will lie in ruins forever.”

Then you will know that I, the LORD, have heard all the insults you spoke against the mountains of Israel, saying,“ They are desolate, they have been given to us for food.”You exalted yourselves against me with your speech and hurled many insults against me– I have heard them all!This is what the sovereign LORD says: While the whole earth rejoices, I will turn you into a desolation.As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, so will I deal with you– you will be desolate, Mount Seir, and all of Edom– all of it! Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”

Let us acknowledge our shame. Let us bear the disgrace that we deserve. For we have sinned against the LORD our God, both we and our ancestors. From earliest times to this very day we have not obeyed the LORD our God.’

Rejoice and be glad for now, O people of Edom, who reside in the land of Uz. But the cup of judgment will pass to you also; you will get drunk and take off your clothes.ת( Tav)

“‘ You have shown unrelenting hostility and poured the people of Israel onto the blades of a sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of their final punishment.Therefore, as surely as I live, declares the sovereign LORD, I will subject you to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.I will turn Mount Seir into a desolate ruin; I will cut off from it the one who passes through or returns.

They will wear sackcloth, terror will cover them; shame will be on all their faces, and all of their heads will be shaved bald.

“ Edom will become an object of horror. All who pass by it will be filled with horror; they will hiss out their scorn because of all the disasters that have happened to it.Edom will be destroyed like Sodom and Gomorrah and the towns that were around them. No one will live there. No human being will settle in it,” says the LORD.“ A lion coming up from the thick undergrowth along the Jordan scatters the sheep in the pastureland around it. So too I will chase the Edomites off their land. Then I will appoint over it whomever I choose. For there is no one like me, and there is no one who can call me to account. There is no ruler who can stand up against me.So listen to what I, the LORD, have planned against Edom, what I intend to do to the people who live in Teman. Their little ones will be dragged off. I will completely destroy their land because of what they have done.

Egypt will be desolate and Edom will be a desolate wilderness, because of the violence they did to the people of Judah, in whose land they shed innocent blood.

“ This is what the sovereign LORD says:‘ Edom has taken vengeance against the house of Judah; they have made themselves fully culpable by taking vengeance on them.So this is what the sovereign LORD says: I will stretch out my hand against Edom, and I will kill the people and animals within her, and I will make her desolate; from Teman to Dedan they will die by the sword.I will exact my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel. They will carry out in Edom my anger and rage; they will experience my vengeance, declares the sovereign LORD.’”

“ But Esau my brother is a hairy man,” Jacob protested to his mother Rebekah,“ and I have smooth skin!
