A Prophecy Against Edom

¹² “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: ‘Because Edom^(A) took revenge on Judah and became very guilty by doing so, ¹³ therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will stretch out my hand^(B) against Edom and kill both man and beast.^(C) I will lay it waste, and from Teman^(D) to Dedan^(E) they will fall by the sword.^{(F) 14} I will take vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel, and they will deal with Edom in accordance with my anger^(G) and my wrath; they will know my vengeance, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”^(H)

¹⁴ I will make you a bare rock, and you will become a place to spread fishnets. You will never be rebuilt,^(A) for I the Lord have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.
