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 1:2-4}
