Concerning the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Hath IsraelH3478 no sonsH1121? hath he no heirH3423? why then doth their kingH4428 inheritH3423 GadH1410, and his peopleH5971 dwellH3427 in his citiesH5892? {Concerning: or, Against} {their king: or, Melcom}
Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH559 the LORDH3068, that I will cause an alarmH8643 of warH4421 to be heardH8085 in RabbahH7237 of the AmmonitesH1121+H5983; and it shall be a desolateH8077 heapH8510, and her daughtersH1323 shall be burnedH3341 with fireH784: then shall IsraelH3478 be heirH3423 unto them that were his heirsH3423, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
HowlH3213, O HeshbonH2809, for AiH5857 is spoiledH7703: cryH6817, ye daughtersH1323 of RabbahH7237, girdH2296 you with sackclothH8242; lamentH5594, and run to and froH7751 by the hedgesH1448; for their kingH4428 shall goH3212 into captivityH1473, and his priestsH3548 and his princesH8269 togetherH3162. {their king: or, Melcom}
Wherefore gloriestH1984 thou in the valleysH6010, thy flowingH2100 valleyH6010, O backslidingH7728 daughterH1323? that trustedH982 in her treasuresH214, saying, Who shall comeH935 unto me? {thy…: or, thy valley floweth away}
Behold, I will bringH935 a fearH6343 upon thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635, from all those that be aboutH5439 thee; and ye shall be driven outH5080 every manH376 right forthH6440; and none shall gather upH6908 him that wanderethH5074.
And afterwardH310 I will bring againH7725 the captivityH7622 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Concerning EdomH123, thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Is wisdomH2451 no more in TemanH8487? is counselH6098 perishedH6 from the prudentH995? is their wisdomH2451 vanishedH5628?
FleeH5127 ye, turn backH6437, dwellH3427 deepH6009, O inhabitantsH3427 of DedanH1719; for I will bringH935 the calamityH343 of EsauH6215 upon him, the timeH6256 that I will visitH6485 him. {turn…: or, they are turned back}
If grapegatherersH1219 comeH935 to thee, would they not leaveH7604 some gleaning grapesH5955? if thievesH1590 by nightH3915, they will destroyH7843 till they have enoughH1767. {till…: Heb. their sufficiency}
But I have made EsauH6215 bareH2834, I have uncoveredH1540 his secret placesH4565, and he shall not be ableH3201 to hideH2247 himself: his seedH2233 is spoiledH7703, and his brethrenH251, and his neighboursH7934, and he is not.
LeaveH5800 thy fatherless childrenH3490, I will preserve them aliveH2421; and let thy widowsH490 trustH982 in me.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, they whose judgmentH4941 was not to drinkH8354 of the cupH3563 have assuredlyH8354 drunkenH8354; and art thou he that shall altogetherH5352 go unpunishedH5352? thou shalt not go unpunishedH5352, but thou shalt surelyH8354 drinkH8354 of it.
For I have swornH7650 by myself, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that BozrahH1224 shall become a desolationH8047, a reproachH2781, a wasteH2721, and a curseH7045; and all the citiesH5892 thereof shall be perpetualH5769 wastesH2723.
I have heardH8085 a rumourH8052 from the LORDH3068, and an ambassadorH6735 is sentH7971 unto the heathenH1471, saying, Gather ye togetherH6908, and comeH935 against her, and rise upH6965 to the battleH4421.
For, lo, I will makeH5414 thee smallH6996 among the heathenH1471, and despisedH959 among menH120.
Thy terriblenessH8606 hath deceivedH5377 thee, and the prideH2087 of thine heartH3820, O thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, that holdestH8610 the heightH4791 of the hillH1389: though thou shouldest make thy nestH7064 as highH1361 as the eagleH5404, I will bring thee downH3381 from thence, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Also EdomH123 shall be a desolationH8047: every one that goethH5674 by it shall be astonishedH8074, and shall hissH8319 at all the plaguesH4347 thereof.
As in the overthrowH4114 of SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 and the neighbourH7934 cities thereof, saithH559 the LORDH3068, no manH376 shall abideH3427 there, neither shall a sonH1121 of manH120 dwellH1481 in it.
Behold, he shall come upH5927 like a lionH738 from the swellingH1347 of JordanH3383 against the habitationH5116 of the strongH386: but I will suddenlyH7280 make him run awayH7323 from her: and who is a chosenH977 man, that I may appointH6485 over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the timeH3259? and who is that shepherdH7462 that will standH5975 beforeH6440 me? {appoint me…: or, convent me in judgment?}
Therefore hearH8085 the counselH6098 of the LORDH3068, that he hath takenH3289 against EdomH123; and his purposesH4284, that he hath purposedH2803 against the inhabitantsH3427 of TemanH8487: Surely the leastH6810 of the flockH6629 shall draw them outH5498: surely he shall make their habitationsH5116 desolateH8074 with them.
The earthH776 is movedH7493 at the noiseH6963 of their fallH5307, at the cryH6818 the noiseH6963 thereof was heardH8085 in the RedH5488 seaH3220. {Red sea: Heb. Weedy sea}
Behold, he shall come upH5927 and flyH1675 as the eagleH5404, and spreadH6566 his wingsH3671 over BozrahH1224: and at that dayH3117 shall the heartH3820 of the mighty menH1368 of EdomH123 be as the heartH3820 of a womanH802 in her pangsH6887.
Concerning DamascusH1834. HamathH2574 is confoundedH954, and ArpadH774: for they have heardH8085 evilH7451 tidingsH8052: they are faintheartedH4127; there is sorrowH1674 on the seaH3220; it cannotH3201 be quietH8252. {fainthearted: Heb. melted} {on…: or, as on the sea}
DamascusH1834 is waxed feebleH7503, and turnethH6437 herself to fleeH5127, and fearH7374 hath seizedH2388 on her: anguishH6869 and sorrowsH2256 have takenH270 her, as a woman in travailH3205.
How is the cityH5892 of praiseH8416 not leftH5800, the cityH7151 of my joyH4885!
Therefore her young menH970 shall fallH5307 in her streetsH7339, and all the menH582 of warH4421 shall be cut offH1826 in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
And I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the wallH2346 of DamascusH1834, and it shall consumeH398 the palacesH759 of BenhadadH1130.
Concerning KedarH6938, and concerning the kingdomsH4467 of HazorH2674, which NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 shall smiteH5221, thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; AriseH6965 ye, go upH5927 to KedarH6938, and spoilH7703 the menH1121 of the eastH6924.
Their tentsH168 and their flocksH6629 shall they take awayH3947: they shall takeH5375 to themselves their curtainsH3407, and all their vesselsH3627, and their camelsH1581; and they shall cryH7121 unto them, FearH4032 is on every sideH5439.
FleeH5127, getH5110 you far offH3966, dwellH3427 deepH6009, O ye inhabitantsH3427 of HazorH2674, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; for NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 hath taken counselH6098+H3289 against you, and hath conceivedH2803 a purposeH4284 against you. {get…: Heb. flit greatly}
AriseH6965, get you upH5927 unto the wealthyH7961 nationH1471, that dwellethH3427 without careH983, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, which have neither gatesH1817 nor barsH1280, which dwellH7931 aloneH910. {wealthy: or, that is at ease}
And their camelsH1581 shall be a bootyH957, and the multitudeH1995 of their cattleH4735 a spoilH7998: and I will scatterH2219 into all windsH7307 them that are in the utmostH7112 cornersH6285; and I will bringH935 their calamityH343 from all sidesH5676 thereof, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {in…: Heb. cut off into corners, or, that have the corners of their hair polled}
And HazorH2674 shall be a dwellingH4583 for dragonsH8577, and a desolationH8077 forH5704 everH5769: there shall no manH376 abideH3427 there, nor any sonH1121 of manH120 dwellH1481 in it.
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 that came to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 against ElamH5867 in the beginningH7225 of the reignH4438 of ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Behold, I will breakH7665 the bowH7198 of ElamH5867, the chiefH7225 of their mightH1369.
And upon ElamH5867 will I bringH935 the fourH702 windsH7307 from the fourH702 quartersH7098 of heavenH8064, and will scatterH2219 them toward all those windsH7307; and there shall be no nationH1471 whither the outcastsH5080 of ElamH5867+H5769 shall not comeH935.
For I will cause ElamH5867 to be dismayedH2865 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341, and beforeH6440 them that seekH1245 their lifeH5315: and I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon them, even my fierceH2740 angerH639, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and I will sendH7971 the swordH2719 afterH310 them, till I have consumedH3615 them:
And I will setH7760 my throneH3678 in ElamH5867, and will destroyH6 from thence the kingH4428 and the princesH8269, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
But it shall come to pass in the latterH319 daysH3117, that I will bring againH7725+H7725 the captivityH7622+H7622 of ElamH5867, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.

Behold, I will sendH7971 and takeH3947 all the familiesH4940 of the northH6828, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and NebuchadrezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650, and will bringH935 them against this landH776, and against the inhabitantsH3427 thereof, and against all these nationsH1471 round aboutH5439, and will utterly destroyH2763 them, and makeH7760 them an astonishmentH8047, and an hissingH8322, and perpetualH5769 desolationsH2723.
Then saidH559 they, ComeH3212, and let us deviseH2803 devicesH4284 against JeremiahH3414; for the lawH8451 shall not perishH6 from the priestH3548, nor counselH6098 from the wiseH2450, nor the wordH1697 from the prophetH5030. ComeH3212, and let us smiteH5221 him with the tongueH3956, and let us not give heedH7181 to any of his wordsH1697. {with…: or, for the tongue}
Therefore hearH8085 the counselH6098 of the LORDH3068, that he hath takenH3289 against EdomH123; and his purposesH4284, that he hath purposedH2803 against the inhabitantsH3427 of TemanH8487: Surely the leastH6810 of the flockH6629 shall draw them outH5498: surely he shall make their habitationsH5116 desolateH8074 with them.
He disappointethH6565 the devicesH4284 of the craftyH6175, so that their handsH3027 cannot performH6213 their enterpriseH8454. {their enterprise: or, any thing}
He takethH3920 the wiseH2450 in their own craftinessH6193: and the counselH6098 of the frowardH6617 is carried headlongH4116.
They meetH6298 with darknessH2822 in the daytimeH3119, and gropeH4959 in the noondayH6672 as in the nightH3915. {meet…: or, run into}

And EsauH6215 saidH559 to JacobH3290, FeedH3938 me, I pray thee, withH4480 that sameH122 redH122 pottage; for I am faintH5889: therefore was his nameH8034 calledH7121 EdomH123. {with…: Heb. with that red, with that red pottage} {Edom: that is Red}
Surely the princesH8269 of ZoanH6814 are foolsH191, the counselH6098 of the wiseH2450 counsellorsH3289 of PharaohH6547 is become brutishH1197: how sayH559 ye unto PharaohH6547, I am the sonH1121 of the wiseH2450, the sonH1121 of ancientH6924 kingsH4428?
WhereH335 are they? whereH645 are thy wiseH2450 men? and let them tellH5046 thee now, and let them knowH3045 what the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 hath purposedH3289 upon EgyptH4714.
The princesH8269 of ZoanH6814 are become foolsH2973, the princesH8269 of NophH5297 are deceivedH5377; they have also seducedH8582 EgyptH4714, even they that are the stayH6438 of the tribesH7626 thereof. {they that…: or, governors: Heb. corners}

And EsauH6215 hatedH7852 JacobH3290 becauseH5921 of the blessingH1293 wherewithH834 his fatherH1 blessed himH1288: and EsauH6215 saidH559 in his heartH3820, The daysH3117 of mourningH60 for my fatherH1 are at handH7126; then will I slayH2026 my brotherH251 JacobH3290.
Therefore, behold, I will proceedH3254 to do a marvellous workH6381 among this peopleH5971, even a marvellous workH6381 and a wonderH6382: for the wisdomH2451 of their wiseH2450 men shall perishH6, and the understandingH998 of their prudentH995 men shall be hidH5641. {proceed: Heb. add}
Shall I not in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, even destroyH6 the wiseH2450 men out of EdomH123, and understandingH8394 out of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215?
Now when Job'sH347 threeH7969 friendsH7453 heardH8085 of all this evilH7451 that was comeH935 upon him, they cameH935 every oneH376 from his own placeH4725; EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489, and BildadH1085 the ShuhiteH7747, and ZopharH6691 the NaamathiteH5284: for they had made an appointmentH3259 togetherH3162 to comeH935 to mournH5110 with him and to comfortH5162 him.
And MosesH4872 sentH7971 messengersH4397 from KadeshH6946 unto the kingH4428 of EdomH123, Thus saithH559 thy brotherH251 IsraelH3478, Thou knowestH3045 all the travailH8513 that hath befallenH4672 us: {befallen…: Heb. found us}
How our fathersH1 went downH3381 into EgyptH4714, and we have dweltH3427 in EgyptH4714 a longH7227 timeH3117; and the EgyptiansH4714 vexedH7489 us, and our fathersH1:
And when we criedH6817 unto the LORDH3068, he heardH8085 our voiceH6963, and sentH7971 an angelH4397, and hath brought us forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714: and, behold, we are in KadeshH6946, a cityH5892 in the uttermostH7097 of thy borderH1366:
Let us passH5674, I pray thee, through thy countryH776: we will not passH5674 through the fieldsH7704, or through the vineyardsH3754, neither will we drinkH8354 of the waterH4325 of the wellsH875: we will goH3212 by the king'sH4428 high wayH1870, we will not turnH5186 to the right handH3225 nor to the leftH8040, until we have passedH5674 thy bordersH1366.
And EdomH123 saidH559 unto him, Thou shalt not passH5674 by me, lest I come outH3318 againstH7125 thee with the swordH2719.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto him, We will goH5927 by the high wayH4546: and if I and my cattleH4735 drinkH8354 of thy waterH4325, then I will payH5414+H4377 for it: I will only, without doing any thingH1697 else, go throughH5674 on my feetH7272.
And he saidH559, Thou shalt not go throughH5674. And EdomH123 came outH3318 againstH7125 him with muchH3515 peopleH5971, and with a strongH2389 handH3027.
Thus EdomH123 refusedH3985 to giveH5414 IsraelH3478 passageH5674 through his borderH1366: wherefore IsraelH3478 turned awayH5186 from him.
I shall seeH7200 him, but not now: I shall beholdH7789 him, but not nighH7138: there shall comeH1869 a StarH3556 out of JacobH3290, and a SceptreH7626 shall riseH6965 out of IsraelH3478, and shall smiteH4272 the cornersH6285 of MoabH4124, and destroyH6979 all the childrenH1121 of ShethH8352+H8351. {smite…: or, smite through the princes of}

Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will also stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon EdomH123, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it; and I will makeH5414 it desolateH2723 from TemanH8487; and they of DedanH1719 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719. {they…: or, they shall fall by the sword unto Dedan}
And EdomH123 shall be a possessionH3424, SeirH8165 also shall be a possessionH3424 for his enemiesH341; and IsraelH3478 shall doH6213 valiantlyH2428.
But I will sendH7971 a fireH784 upon TemanH8487, which shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of BozrahH1224.
Thou shalt not abhorH8581 an EdomiteH130; for he is thy brotherH251: thou shalt not abhorH8581 an EgyptianH4713; because thou wast a strangerH1616 in his landH776.
And thy mightyH1368 men, O TemanH8487, shall be dismayedH2865, to the end that every oneH376 of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215 may be cut offH3772 by slaughterH6993.
They have saidH559, ComeH3212, and let us cut them offH3582 from being a nationH1471; that the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478 may be no more in remembranceH2142.
For they have consultedH3289 togetherH3162 with one consentH3820: they areH3772 confederateH1285 against thee: {consent: Heb. heart}
The tabernaclesH168 of EdomH123, and the IshmaelitesH3459; of MoabH4124, and the HagarenesH1905;
GebalH1381, and AmmonH5983, and AmalekH6002; the PhilistinesH6429 with the inhabitantsH3427 of TyreH6865;
AssurH804 also is joinedH3867 with them: they have holpenH2220 the childrenH1121 of LotH3876. SelahH5542. {holpen: Heb. been an arm to}
DoH6213 unto them as unto the MidianitesH4080; as to SiseraH5516, as to JabinH2985, at the brookH5158 of KisonH7028:
Which perishedH8045 at EndorH5874: they became as dungH1828 for the earthH127.
GodH433 cameH935 from TemanH8487, and the Holy OneH6918 from mountH2022 ParanH6290. SelahH5542. His gloryH1935 coveredH3680 the heavensH8064, and the earthH776 was fullH4390 of his praiseH8416. {Teman: or, the south}
RememberH2142, O LORDH3068, the childrenH1121 of EdomH123 in the dayH3117 of JerusalemH3389; who saidH559, RaseH6168 it, raseH6168 it, even to the foundationH3247 thereof. {Rase it: Heb. Make bare}
Come nearH7126, ye nationsH1471, to hearH8085; and hearkenH7181, ye peopleH3816: let the earthH776 hearH8085, and all that is thereinH4393; the worldH8398, and all things that come forthH6631 of it. {all that…: Heb. the fulness thereof}
For the indignationH7110 of the LORDH3068 is upon all nationsH1471, and his furyH2534 upon all their armiesH6635: he hath utterly destroyedH2763 them, he hath deliveredH5414 them to the slaughterH2874.
Their slainH2491 also shall be cast outH7993, and their stinkH889 shall come upH5927 out of their carcasesH6297, and the mountainsH2022 shall be meltedH4549 with their bloodH1818.
And all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 shall be dissolvedH4743, and the heavensH8064 shall be rolled togetherH1556 as a scrollH5612: and all their hostH6635 shall fall downH5034, as the leafH5929 falleth offH5034 from the vineH1612, and as a fallingH5034 fig from the fig treeH8384.
For my swordH2719 shall be bathedH7301 in heavenH8064: behold, it shall come downH3381 upon IdumeaH123, and upon the peopleH5971 of my curseH2764, to judgmentH4941.
The swordH2719 of the LORDH3068 is filledH4390 with bloodH1818, it is made fatH1878 with fatnessH2459, and with the bloodH1818 of lambsH3733 and goatsH6260, with the fatH2459 of the kidneysH3629 of ramsH352: for the LORDH3068 hath a sacrificeH2077 in BozrahH1224, and a greatH1419 slaughterH2874 in the landH776 of IdumeaH123.
And the unicornsH7214 shall come downH3381 with them, and the bullocksH6499 with the bullsH47; and their landH776 shall be soakedH7301 with bloodH1818, and their dustH6083 made fatH1878 with fatnessH2459. {unicorns: or, rhinocerots} {soaked: or, drunken}
For it is the dayH3117 of the LORD'SH3068 vengeanceH5359, and the yearH8141 of recompencesH7966 for the controversyH7379 of ZionH6726.
And the streamsH5158 thereof shall be turnedH2015 into pitchH2203, and the dustH6083 thereof into brimstoneH1614, and the landH776 thereof shall become burningH1197 pitchH2203.
It shall not be quenchedH3518 nightH3915 nor dayH3119; the smokeH6227 thereof shall go upH5927 for everH5769: from generationH1755 to generationH1755 it shall lie wasteH2717; none shall pass throughH5674 it for everH5331 and everH5331.
But the cormorantH6893 and the bitternH7090 shall possessH3423 it; the owlH3244 also and the ravenH6158 shall dwellH7931 in it: and he shall stretch outH5186 upon it the lineH6957 of confusionH8414, and the stonesH68 of emptinessH922. {cormorant: or, pelican}
They shall callH7121 the noblesH2715 thereof to the kingdomH4410, but none shall be there, and all her princesH8269 shall be nothingH657.
And thornsH5518 shall come upH5927 in her palacesH759, nettlesH7057 and bramblesH2336 in the fortressesH4013 thereof: and it shall be an habitationH5116 of dragonsH8577, and a courtH2681 for owlsH1323+H3284. {owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}
The wild beasts of the desertH6728 shall also meetH6298 with the wild beasts of the islandH338, and the satyrH8163 shall cryH7121 to his fellowH7453; the screech owlH3917 also shall restH7280 there, and findH4672 for herself a place of restH4494. {The wild…desert: Heb. Ziim} {the wild…island: Heb. Ijim} {screech…: or, night monster}
There shall the great owlH7091 make her nestH7077, and layH4422, and hatchH1234, and gatherH1716 under her shadowH6738: there shall the vulturesH1772 also be gatheredH6908, every oneH802 with her mateH7468.
Seek ye outH1875 of the bookH5612 of the LORDH3068, and readH7121: no oneH259 of theseH2007 shall failH5737, noneH802 shall wantH6485 her mateH7468: for my mouthH6310 it hath commandedH6680, and his spiritH7307 it hath gatheredH6908 them.
And he hath castH5307 the lotH1486 for them, and his handH3027 hath dividedH2505 it unto them by lineH6957: they shall possessH3423 it forH5704 everH5769, from generationH1755 to generationH1755 shall they dwellH7931 therein.
Who is this that comethH935 from EdomH123, with dyedH2556 garmentsH899 from BozrahH1224? this that is gloriousH1921 in his apparelH3830, travellingH6808 in the greatnessH7230 of his strengthH3581? I that speakH1696 in righteousnessH6666, mightyH7227 to saveH3467. {glorious: Heb. decked}
Wherefore art thou redH122 in thine apparelH3830, and thy garmentsH899 like him that treadethH1869 in the winefatH1660?
I have troddenH1869 the winepressH6333 alone; and of the peopleH5971 there was noneH376 with me: for I will treadH1869 them in mine angerH639, and trampleH7429 them in my furyH2534; and their bloodH5332 shall be sprinkledH5137 upon my garmentsH899, and I will stainH1351 all my raimentH4403.
For the dayH3117 of vengeanceH5359 is in mine heartH3820, and the yearH8141 of my redeemedH1350 is comeH935.
And I lookedH5027, and there was none to helpH5826; and I wonderedH8074 that there was none to upholdH5564: therefore mine own armH2220 brought salvationH3467 unto me; and my furyH2534, it upheldH5564 me.
And I will tread downH947 the peopleH5971 in mine angerH639, and make them drunkH7937 in my furyH2534, and I will bring downH3381 their strengthH5332 to the earthH776.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because that EdomH123 hath dealtH6213 against the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 by takingH5358 vengeanceH5359, and hath greatlyH816 offendedH816, and revengedH5358 himself upon them; {by…: Heb. by revenging revengement}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will also stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon EdomH123, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it; and I will makeH5414 it desolateH2723 from TemanH8487; and they of DedanH1719 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719. {they…: or, they shall fall by the sword unto Dedan}
And I will layH5414 my vengeanceH5360 upon EdomH123 by the handH3027 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478: and they shall doH6213 in EdomH123 according to mine angerH639 and according to my furyH2534; and they shall knowH3045 my vengeanceH5360, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Moreover the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 against mountH2022 SeirH8165, and prophesyH5012 against it,
And sayH559 unto it, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, O mountH2022 SeirH8165, I am against thee, and I will stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 against thee, and I will makeH5414 thee mostH4923 desolateH8077. {most…: Heb. desolation and desolation}
I will layH7760 thy citiesH5892 wasteH2723, and thou shalt be desolateH8077, and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Because thou hast had a perpetualH5769 hatredH342, and hast shedH5064 the blood of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 by the forceH3027 of the swordH2719 in the timeH6256 of their calamityH343, in the timeH6256 that their iniquityH5771 had an endH7093: {perpetual…: or, hatred of old} {shed…: Heb. poured out the children} {force: Heb. hands}
Therefore, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will prepareH6213 thee unto bloodH1818, and bloodH1818 shall pursueH7291 thee: sithH518 thou hast not hatedH8130 bloodH1818, even bloodH1818 shall pursueH7291 thee.
Thus will I makeH5414 mountH2022 SeirH8165 mostH8077 desolateH8077, and cut offH3772 from it him that passeth outH5674 and him that returnethH7725. {most…: Heb. desolation and desolation}
And I will fillH4390 his mountainsH2022 with his slainH2491 men: in thy hillsH1389, and in thy valleysH1516, and in all thy riversH650, shall they fallH5307 that are slainH2491 with the swordH2719.
I will makeH5414 thee perpetualH5769 desolationsH8077, and thy citiesH5892 shall not returnH7725+H3427: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Because thou hast saidH559, These twoH8147 nationsH1471 and these twoH8147 countriesH776 shall be mine, and we will possessH3423 it; whereas the LORDH3068 was there: {whereas…: or, though the LORD was there}
Therefore, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will even doH6213 according to thine angerH639, and according to thine envyH7068 which thou hast usedH6213 out of thy hatredH8135 against them; and I will make myself knownH3045 among them, when I have judgedH8199 thee.
And thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, and that I have heardH8085 all thy blasphemiesH5007 which thou hast spokenH559 against the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, They are laid desolateH8074+H8077, they are givenH5414 us to consumeH402. {to consume: Heb. to devour}
Thus with your mouthH6310 ye have boastedH1431 against me, and have multipliedH6280 your wordsH1697 against me: I have heardH8085 them. {boasted: Heb. magnified}
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; When the whole earthH776 rejoicethH8055, I will makeH6213 thee desolateH8077.
As thou didst rejoiceH8057 at the inheritanceH5159 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, because it was desolateH8074, so will I doH6213 unto thee: thou shalt be desolateH8077, O mountH2022 SeirH8165, and all IdumeaH123, even all of it: and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
He shall enterH935 also into the gloriousH6643 landH776, and manyH7227 countries shall be overthrownH3782: but these shall escapeH4422 out of his handH3027, even EdomH123, and MoabH4124, and the chiefH7225 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. {glorious…: or, goodly, etc.: Heb. land of delight, or, ornament}
EgyptH4714 shall be a desolationH8077, and EdomH123 shall be a desolateH8077 wildernessH4057, for the violenceH2555 against the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, because they have shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818 in their landH776.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of EdomH123, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because he did pursueH7291 his brotherH251 with the swordH2719, and did cast offH7843 all pityH7356, and his angerH639 did tearH2963 perpetuallyH5703, and he keptH8104 his wrathH5678 for everH5331: {did cast…: Heb. corrupted his compassions}
But I will sendH7971 a fireH784 upon TemanH8487, which shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of BozrahH1224.
The visionH2377 of ObadiahH5662. Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 concerning EdomH123; We have heardH8085 a rumourH8052 from the LORDH3068, and an ambassadorH6735 is sentH7971 among the heathenH1471, AriseH6965 ye, and let us rise upH6965 against her in battleH4421.
Behold, I have madeH5414 thee smallH6996 among the heathenH1471: thou art greatlyH3966 despisedH959.
The prideH2087 of thine heartH3820 hath deceivedH5377 thee, thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, whose habitationH3427 is highH4791; that saithH559 in his heartH3820, Who shall bring me downH3381 to the groundH776?
Though thou exaltH1361 thyself as the eagleH5404, and though thou setH7760 thy nestH7064 among the starsH3556, thence will I bring thee downH3381, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
If thievesH1590 cameH935 to thee, if robbersH7703 by nightH3915, (how art thou cut offH1820!) would they not have stolenH1589 till they had enoughH1767? if the grapegatherersH1219 cameH935 to thee, would they not leaveH7604 some grapesH5955? {some…: or, gleanings?}
How are the things of EsauH6215 searched outH2664! how are his hiddenH4710 things sought upH1158!
All the menH582 of thy confederacyH1285 have broughtH7971 thee even to the borderH1366: the menH582 that were at peaceH7965 with thee have deceivedH5377 thee, and prevailedH3201 against thee; they that eat thy breadH3899 have laidH7760 a woundH4204 under thee: there is none understandingH8394 in him. {that were…: Heb. of thy peace} {they…: Heb. the men of thy bread} {in him: or, of it}
Shall I not in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, even destroyH6 the wiseH2450 men out of EdomH123, and understandingH8394 out of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215?
And thy mightyH1368 men, O TemanH8487, shall be dismayedH2865, to the end that every oneH376 of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215 may be cut offH3772 by slaughterH6993.
And I hatedH8130 EsauH6215, and laidH7760 his mountainsH2022 and his heritageH5159 wasteH8077 for the dragonsH8568 of the wildernessH4057.
Whereas EdomH123 saithH559, We are impoverishedH7567, but we will returnH7725 and buildH1129 the desolate placesH2723; thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, They shall buildH1129, but I will throw downH2040; and they shall callH7121 them, The borderH1366 of wickednessH7564, and, The peopleH5971 against whom the LORDH3068 hath indignationH2194 forH5704 everH5769.
