Prophecy Against Edom

12 "Thus says the Lord GOD: Because 3Edom acted revengefully against the house of Judah and has grievously offended 4in taking vengeance on them,
13 therefore thus says the Lord GOD, 5I will stretch out my hand against Edom and cut off from it man and beast. And I will make it desolate; from 6Teman even to 7Dedan they shall fall by the sword.
14 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom 8by the hand of my people Israel, and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my wrath, and 9they shall know my vengeance, declares the Lord GOD.
