Edom's Sins Against Judah

9 And broken down have been thy mighty ones, O Teman, So that every one of the mount of Esau is cut off. 10 For slaughter, for violence to thy brother Jacob, Cover thee doth shame, And thou hast been cut off -- to the age. 11 In the day of thy standing over-against, In the day of strangers taking captive his force, And foreigners have entered his gates, And for Jerusalem have cast a lot, Even thou art as one of them!
