Yahweh will punish Edom

11 Yahweh also said this to me:

“I will punish the people of Edom because of the many sins that they have committed;

I will not change my mind about punishing them,

because they pursued the people of Israel, who descended from Esau’s brother Jacob, and killed them with swords;

they did not act mercifully toward them at all.

They were extremely angry with the people of Israel,

and they continued to be angry with them.

12 I will cause a fire to burn Teman district in Edom

and completely burn the fortresses of Bozrah, the biggest city in Edom.”
