| 11 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away its [punishment]: because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and [he] kept his wrath for ever: | 11 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Edom, even for four, I will not turn back [my wrath]. Because he pursued his brother with a sword, stifling all compassion, because his anger raged continually and his fury flamed unchecked, |
| 12 But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah. | 12 I will send fire upon Teman that will consume the fortresses of Bozrah." |
