Prophecy against Edom

⁷Concerning ^(A)Edom.
This is what the Lord of armies says:
“Is there no longer any ^(B)wisdom in ^(C)Teman?
Has good advice been lost by the prudent?
Has their wisdom decayed?
⁸Flee away, turn back, dwell in the depths,
You inhabitants of ^(D)Dedan,
For I ^[a]will bring the ^(E)disaster of Esau upon him
At the time I ^[b]punish him.
⁹^(F)If grape pickers came to you,
Would they not leave gleanings?
If thieves came by night,
They would destroy only what was sufficient for them.
¹⁰But I have ^(G)stripped Esau bare,
I have uncovered his hiding places
So that he will not be able to conceal himself;
His ^[c]offspring have been destroyed along with his ^[d]brothers
And his neighbors, and ^(H)he no longer exists.
¹¹Leave your ^[e]^(I)orphans behind, I will keep them alive;
And let your ^(J)widows trust in Me.”

¹²For this is what the Lord says: “Behold, those ^[f]who were not sentenced to drink the ^(K)cup will certainly drink it, so are you the one who will be held ^(L)completely blameless? You will not be held blameless, but you will certainly drink it. ¹³For I have ^(M)sworn by Myself,” declares the Lord, “that ^(N)Bozrah will become an ^(O)object of horror, a disgrace, a wasteland, and a curse; and all its cities will become permanent ruins.”

¹⁴I have ^(P)heard a message from the Lord,
And a ^(Q)messenger is being sent among the nations, saying,
“^(R)Gather yourselves together and come against her,
And rise up for battle!”
¹⁵“For behold, I have made you small among the nations,
Despised among people.
¹⁶As for the terror you cause,
The arrogance of your heart has deceived you,
You who live in the clefts of ^[g]the ^(S)rock,
Who occupy the height of the hill.
Though you make your nest as ^(T)high as an eagle’s,
I will ^(U)bring you down from there,” declares the Lord.

¹⁷“Edom will become an ^(V)object of horror; everyone who passes by it will be appalled and will ^[h]^(W)hiss at all its wounds. ¹⁸Like the ^(X)overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah with its neighbors,” says the Lord, “^(Y)no one will live there, nor will ^[i]anyone of mankind reside in it. ¹⁹^(Z)Behold, one will come up like a lion from the ^(AA)thicket of the Jordan to a perennially watered pasture; for in an instant I will chase him away from it, and I will appoint over it whoever is ^(AB)chosen. For who is ^(AC)like Me, and who will summon Me into court? And who then is the shepherd ^(AD)who can stand against Me?”

²⁰Therefore hear the ^(AE)plan of the Lord which He has planned against Edom, and His purposes which He has in mind against the inhabitants of Teman: they will certainly drag them off, even the little ones of the flock; He will certainly make their pasture ^(AF)desolate because of them. ²¹The ^(AG)earth has quaked at the noise of their downfall. There is an outcry! The noise of it has been heard at the ^[j]Red Sea. ²²Behold, ^[k]He will mount up and ^(AH)swoop like an eagle, and spread out His wings ^[l]against Bozrah; and the ^(AI)hearts of the warriors of Edom on that day will be like the heart of a woman in labor.
