17 “People of Edom,
    all those who pass by you will be shocked.
They will make fun of you
    because of all your wounds.
18 Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed.
    So were the towns that were near them,”
    says the Lord.
“You will be just like them.
    No one will live in your land.
    No human beings will stay there.

19 “I will be like a lion coming up
    from the bushes by the Jordan River.
    I will hunt in rich grasslands.
I will chase you from your land in an instant.
    What nation will I choose to do this?
    Which one will I appoint?
Is anyone like me?
    Who would dare to argue with me?
    What leader can stand against me?”
