the Sovereign LORD, have for them: Israel's enemies gloated and said, 'Now those ancient hills are ours!'

So now listen to what I, the Sovereign LORD, say to you mountains and hills, to you brooks and valleys, to you places that were left in ruins, and to you deserted cities which were plundered and mocked by all the surrounding nations.

Remember, LORD, what the Edomites did the day Jerusalem was captured. Remember how they kept saying, "Tear it down to the ground!"

If you make fun of poor people, you insult the God who made them. You will be punished if you take pleasure in someone's misfortune.

Laugh on, people of Edom and Uz; be glad while you can. Your disaster is coming too; you too will stagger naked in shame.

You should not have gloated over the misfortune of your relatives in Judah. You should not have been glad on the day of their ruin. You should not have laughed at them in their distress.

"The day is near when I, the LORD, will judge all nations. Edom, what you have done will be done to you. You will get back what you have given.

Tell the people what I, the Sovereign LORD, am saying: "I am your enemy, mountains of Edom! I will make you a desolate wasteland.

I will leave your cities in ruins And your land desolate; Then you will know that I am the LORD.

"I, the Sovereign LORD, have spoken out in the heat of my anger against the surrounding nations, and especially against Edom. With glee and contempt they captured my land and took possession of its pastures.

The LORD has prepared his sword in heaven, and now it will strike Edom, those people whom he has condemned to destruction.

His sword will be covered with their blood and fat, like the blood and fat of lambs and goats that are sacrificed. The LORD will offer this sacrifice in the city of Bozrah; he will make this a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

from Jerusalem, from the territory of Idumea, from the territory on the east side of the Jordan, and from the region around the cities of Tyre and Sidon. All these people came to Jesus because they had heard of the things he was doing.

I will leave your cities in ruins And your land desolate; Then you will know that I am the LORD.

I will make you desolate forever, and no one will live in your cities again. Then you will know that I am the LORD.

I will start a fire in the land of Magog and along all the seacoasts where people live undisturbed, and everyone will know that I am the LORD.

I will make sure that my people Israel know my holy name, and I will not let my name be disgraced any more. Then the nations will know that I, the LORD, am the holy God of Israel."
