Edomites, the » Predictions respecting » Utter desolation of their country
Thy floods shall be turned to pitch, and thine earth to brimstone, and therewith shall the land be kindled, so that it shall not be quenched day nor night, but smoke evermore and so forth to lie waste. And no man shall go through thy land forever. But Pelicans, Storks, great Owls, and Ravens shall have it in possession, and dwell therein.

When kings are called upon, there shall be none, and all princes shall be away. Thorns shall grow in their palaces, nettles and thistles in their strongholds; that the dragons may have their pleasure therein, and that they may be a court for Ostriches. There shall strange visures and monstrous beasts meet one another, and the wild keep company together. There shall the llama lie, and have her lodging. There shall the owl make her nest, build, be there at home, and bring forth her young ones. There shall the kites come together, each one to his like. Seek through the scripture of the LORD and read it: There shall none of these things be left out, there shall not one, nor such like, fail. For what his mouth commandeth, that same doth his spirit gather together or fulfill. Upon whomsoever the lot falleth, or to whom he dealeth it with the line: those shall possess the inheritance from generation to generation, and dwell therein.

"'And because thou hast said, 'What, both these nations and both these lands must be mine, and I will have them in possession,' whereas the LORD was there: Therefore thus sayeth the LORD God: As truly as I live, I will handle thee according to thy wrath and jealousy, like as thou hast dealt cruelly with them - that I may be known among them, how I have punished thee. Yea, and that thou also mayest be sure, that I the LORD have heard all thy despiteful words, which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, 'Lo, they are made waste, and given us to devour.' Thus with your mouths ye have made your boast against me; yea, and multiplied your proud words against me, which I have heard altogether. Whereunto, thus sayeth the LORD God: when the whole world is in wealth, then will I make thee waste. And like as thou, O mount Seir, wast glad because the heritage of the house of Israel was destroyed: even so will I do unto thee also, that thou and whole Edom shall be destroyed - and know that I am the LORD.'"
