Remember, O LORD, against the sons of Edom The day of Jerusalem, Who said, "Raze [it,] raze [it,] To its very foundation!"

Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away its [punishment,] Because he pursued his brother with the sword, And cast off all pity; His anger tore perpetually, And he kept his wrath forever.

"For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.

For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

The LORD is known [by] the judgment He executes; The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Meditation. Selah

Until I went into the sanctuary of God; [Then] I understood their end.

Surely You set them in slippery places; You cast them down to destruction.
