7 Remember, O Jehovah,

What the Eʹdom·ites said on the day Jerusalem fell:

19 But Egypt will become desolate,+

And Eʹdom will be a desolate wilderness,+

Because of the violence done to the people of Judah,+

In whose land they shed innocent blood.+

11 This is what Jehovah says,

‘For three revolts of Eʹdom,+ and for four, I will not reverse it,

Because he pursued his own brother with the sword,+

And because he refused to show mercy;

In his anger he keeps tearing them apart relentlessly,

And he remains furious with them continually.+
