“Therefore H3651 behold H2009, the days H3117 are coming H935,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068,
“When I will cause an alarm H8643 of war H4421 to be heard H8085
Against H413 Rabbah H7237 of the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983;
And it will become H1961 a desolate H8077 heap H8510,
And her towns H1323 will be set H3341 on fire H784.
Then Israel H3478 will take H3423 possession H3423 of his possessors H3423,”
“Wail H3213, Heshbon H2809, for Ai H5857 has been destroyed H7703!
Cry H6817 out H6817, daughters H1323 of Rabbah H7237,
Put H2296 on H2296 sackcloth H8242 and mourn H5594,
And move H7751 about H7751 inside the walls H1448;
For [fn]Malcam H4445 will go H1980 into exile H1473
Together H3162 with his priests H3548 and his leaders H8269.
“Behold H2009, I am going to bring H935 terror H6343 upon you,”
Declares H5002 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 of armies H6635,
“From all H3605 directions around H5439 you;
And you will be driven H5080 away H5080 [fn]one H376 after H6440 another,
With no H369 one H369 to gather H6908 the fugitives H5074 together.
For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559: “Behold H2009, those [fn]who H834 were not sentenced H4941 to drink H8354 the cup H3563 will certainly H8354 drink H8354 it, so are you the one H1931 who will be held H5352 completely H5352 blameless H5352? You will not be held H5352 blameless H5352, but you will certainly H8354 drink H8354 it.
“As for the terror H8606 you cause H8606,
The arrogance H2087 of your heart H3820 has deceived H5378 you,
You who live H7931 in the clefts H2288 of [fn]the rock H5553,
Who occupy H8610 the height H4791 of the hill H1389.
Though H3588 you make H1361 your nest H7064 as high H1361 as an eagle’s H5404,
I will bring H3381 you down H3381 from there H8033,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
Therefore H3651 hear H8085 the plan H6098 of the LORD H3068 which H834 He has planned H3289 against H413 Edom H123, and His purposes H4284 which H834 He has H2803 in H2803 mind H2803 against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of Teman H8487: they will certainly H518 H3808 drag H5498 them off H5498, even the little H6810 ones H6810 of the flock H6629; He will certainly H518 H3808 make H8074 their pasture H5116 desolate H8074 because H5921 of them.
“Their camels H1581 will become H1961 plunder H957,
And their many H1995 livestock H4735 for spoils H7998,
And I will scatter H2219 to all H3605 the winds H7307 those who cut H7112 the corners H6285 of their hair;
And I will bring H935 their disaster H343 from every H3605 side H5676,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
‘So I will [fn]shatter H2865 Elam H5867 before H6440 their enemies H340
And before H6440 those who seek H1245 their lives H5315;
And I will bring H935 disaster H7451 upon them,
Even My fierce H2740 anger H639,’ declares H5002 the LORD H3068,
