- "Who¹ [is] this¹ that comethª° from Edom,ª¹ with dyedª° garmentsª from Bozrah?ª¹ this¹ [that is] gloriousª° in his apparel,ª travellingª° in the greatnessª of his strength?ª I¹ that speakª° in righteousness,ª mightyª to save.ª°" {Isa 63:1} + "Remember,ª° O LORD,ª the childrenª of Edomª¹ in the dayª of Jerusalem;ª who said,ª° Raseª° [it], raseª° [it, even] to¹ the foundationª thereof." {Psa 137:7} + "Concerning Edom,ª thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts;ª [Is] wisdomª no¹ more¹ in Teman?ª is counselª perishedª° from the prudent?ª°¹ is their wisdomª vanished?ª° ... Behold,¹ he shall come upª° and flyª° as the eagle,ª and spreadª° his wingsª over¹ Bozrah:ª and at that¹ dayª shall the heartª of the mighty menª of Edomª be¹ as the heartª of a womanª in her pangs.ª°" {Jer 49:7-22} + "Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD;ª Because that¹ Edomª hath dealtª° against the houseª of Judahª by takingª° vengeance,ª and hath greatly²° offended,ª° and revenged²° himself¹ upon them; ... And I will layª°¹ my vengeanceª upon Edomª by the handª of my peopleª Israel:ª and they shall doª° in Edomª according to mine angerª and according to my fury;ª and they shall knowª°¹ my vengeance,ª saithª° the Lordª GOD.ª" {Ezk 25:12-14} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD;ª For¹ threeª transgressionsª of Edom,ª and for¹ four,ª I will not¹ turn awayª° [the punishment] thereof; because¹ he did pursueª° his brotherª with the sword,ª and did cast offª° all pity,ª and his angerª did tearª° perpetually,ª and he keptª° his wrathª for ever:ª ... But I will sendª° a fireª upon Teman,ª which shall devourª° the palacesª of Bozrah.ª" {Ams 1:11-12} + "The visionª of Obadiah.ª Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GODª concerning Edom;ª We have heardª° a rumourª from¹¹ the LORD,ª and an ambassadorª is sentª° among the heathen,ª Ariseª° ye, and let us rise upª° against¹ her in battle.ª ... And thy mightyª [men], O Teman,ª shall be dismayed,ª° to the end that¹ every oneª of the mountª¹ of Esauª may be cut offª° by slaughter.ª¹" {Oba 1:1-9} + "Whereas¹ Edomª saith,ª° We are impoverished,ª° but we will returnª° and buildª° the desolate places;ª thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts,ª They¹ shall build,ª° but I¹ will throw down;ª° and they shall callª° them, The borderª of wickedness,ª and, The peopleª against whom¹ the LORDª hath indignationª° for² ever.ª¹" {Mal 1:4}
