Jeremiah 49:13
49:13 For I solemnly swear,”
says the
Lord, “that Bozrah
will become a pile of ruins. It will become an object of horror and ridicule, an example to be used in curses.
All the towns around it will lie in ruins forever.”
Jeremiah 49:17-20
49:17 “Edom will become an object of horror.
All who pass by it will be filled with horror;
they will hiss out their scorn
because of all the disasters that have happened to it.
49:18 Edom will be destroyed like Sodom and Gomorrah
and the towns that were around them.
No one will live there.
No human being will settle in it,”
says the Lord.
49:19 “A lion coming up from the thick undergrowth along the Jordan
scatters the sheep in the pastureland around it.
So too I will chase the Edomites off their land.
Then I will appoint over it whomever I choose.
For there is no one like me, and there is no one who can call me to account.
There is no ruler who can stand up against me.
49:20 So listen to what I, the Lord, have planned against Edom,
what I intend to do to the people who live in Teman.
Their little ones will be dragged off.
I will completely destroy their land because of what they have done.
Ezekiel 25:13-14
25:13 So this is what the sovereign
Lord says: I will stretch out my hand against Edom, and I will kill the people and animals within her,
and I will make her desolate; from Teman to Dedan they will die
by the sword.
25:14 I will exact my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel. They will carry out in Edom my anger and rage; they will experience
my vengeance, declares the sovereign
Lord.’”
Ezekiel 35:6-7
35:6 Therefore, as surely as I live, declares the sovereign
Lord, I will subject you to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.
35:7 I will turn Mount Seir into a desolate ruin;
I will cut off
from it the one who passes through or returns.
Ezekiel 35:15
35:15 As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, so will I deal with you – you will be desolate, Mount Seir, and all of Edom – all of it! Then they will know that I am the
Lord.’”
Malachi 1:3-4
1:3 and rejected Esau.
I turned Esau’s
mountains into a deserted wasteland
and gave his territory
to the wild jackals.”
1:4 Edom says, “Though we are devastated, we will once again build the ruined places.” So the Lord who rules over all responds, “They indeed may build, but I will overthrow. They will be known as the land of evil, the people with whom the Lord is permanently displeased.
