*
Of Edom .
Thus says LORD of hosts :
Is wisdom no more in Teman ?
Has counsel perished from the prudent ?
Has their wisdom vanished ?
*
Flee ye ,
turn back ,
dwell in the depths ,
O inhabitants of Dedan .
For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him ,
the time that I shall visit him .
*
If grape-gatherers came to thee ,
would they not leave some gleaning grapes ?
If thieves by night ,
would they not destroy till they had enough ?
*
But I have made Esau bare .
I have uncovered his secret places ,
and he shall not be able to hide himself .
His seed is destroyed ,
and his brothers ,
and his neighbors ,
and he is not .
*
Leave thy fatherless sons ;
I will preserve them alive .
And let thy widows trust in me .
*
For thus says LORD :
Behold ,
those to whom it did not pertain to drink of the cup shall assuredly drink .

Thou shall not go unpunished ,
but thou shall surely drink .

that Bozrah shall become an astonishment ,
a reproach ,

*
I have heard news from LORD .
And an ambassador is sent among the nations , [

As for thy formidableness ,
the pride of thy heart has deceived thee ,
O thou who dwells in the clefts of the rock ,
who holds the height of the hill .
Though thou should make thy nest as high as the eagle ,

And Edom shall become an astonishment .
Everyone who passes by it shall be astonished ,
and shall hiss at all the plagues of it .
*
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities thereof ,
says LORD ,
no man shall dwell there ,
nor shall any son of man sojourn in it .
*
Behold ,
he shall come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation .
For I will suddenly make them run away from it .
And he who is chosen ,

Therefore hear ye the counsel of LORD that he has taken against Edom ,
and his purposes ,
that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman :

The earth trembles at the noise of their fall .
There is a cry ;
the noise of it is heard in the Red Sea .

he shall come up and fly as the eagle ,
and spread out his wings against Bozrah .
And the heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs .
