Thus says the Lord,
“For three transgressions of (A)Tyre and for four
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because they delivered up an entire population to Edom
And did not remember the covenant of [a](B)brotherhood.
10 “So I will (C)send fire upon the wall of Tyre
And it will consume her citadels.”

11 Thus says the Lord,
“For three transgressions of (D)Edom and for four
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because he (E)pursued his brother with the sword,
While he [b]stifled his compassion;
His anger also (F)tore continually,
And he maintained his fury forever.
