- Edom:
- "The burdenª of Dumah.ª He callethª° to¹ me out of Seir,ª¹ Watchman,ª° what¹ of the night?ª¹ Watchman,ª° what¹ of the night?ª¹ ... The watchmanª° said,ª° The morningª cometh,ª° and also¹ the night:ª if¹ ye will enquire,ª° enquireª° ye: return,ª° come.ª°" {Isa 21:11-12} + "Come near,ª° ye nations,ª to hear;ª° and hearken,ª° ye people:ª let the earthª hear,ª° and all that is therein;ª the world,ª and all things¹ that come forthª of it. ... And he¹ hath castª° the lotª for them, and his handª hath dividedª° it unto them by line:ª they shall possessª° it for² ever,ª¹ from generationª to generationª shall they dwellª° therein." {Isa 34:1-17} + "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° ... I will mentionª° the lovingkindnessesª of the LORD,ª [and] the praisesª of the LORD,ª according¹ to all¹ that¹ the LORDª hath bestowedª° on us, and the greatª goodnessª toward the houseª of Israel,ª which¹ he hath bestowedª° on them according to his mercies,ª and according to the multitudeª of his lovingkindnesses.ª" {Isa 63:1-7} + "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} + "Moreover the wordª of the LORDª came¹ unto¹ me, saying,ª° ... As thou didst rejoiceª at the inheritanceª of the houseª of Israel,ª because¹¹ it was desolate,ª° so¹ will I doª° unto thee: thou shalt be¹ desolate,ª O mountª Seir,ª and all¹ Idumea,ª [even] all¹ of it: and they shall knowª° that¹ I¹ [am] the LORD.ª" {Ezk 35:1-15} + "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 ... Neither¹ shouldest thou have stoodª° in¹ the crossway,ª to cut offª°¹ those of his that did escape;ª neither¹ shouldest thou have delivered upª° those of his that did remainª in the dayª of distress.ª" {Oba 1:1-14} + "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}
