19 But Egypt will ·become empty [be desolate],
    and Edom an ·empty desert [deserted wilderness],
because ·they were cruel [of their violence] to the ·people [L sons; descendants] of Judah.
    They ·killed innocent people [L shed innocent blood] in that land.
20 But ·there will always be people living in Judah [Judah will be inhabited forever],
    and ·people will live in Jerusalem from now on [L Jerusalem from generation to generation].
21 ·Egypt and Edom killed my people,
    so I will definitely punish them [L I will avenge/punish their blood, which I have not yet avenged/punished].”

The Lord ·lives [dwells] in Jerusalem!
