16 The terror you inspire
and the pride(A) of your heart have deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks,(B)
who occupy the heights of the hill.
Though you build your nest(C) as high as the eagle’s,
from there I will bring you down,”
declares the Lord.
17 “Edom will become an object of horror;(D)
all who pass by will be appalled and will scoff
because of all its wounds.(E)
18 As Sodom(F) and Gomorrah(G) were overthrown,
along with their neighboring towns,”
says the Lord,
“so no one will live there;
no people will dwell(H) in it.

17 Also Edom shall be a desolation: every one that goeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all the plagues thereof.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the Lord, no man shall abide there, neither shall a son of man dwell in it.
