Psalm 108:10
New King James Version
10 (A)Who will bring me into the strong city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
Obadiah 3-4
New King James Version
3 The (A)pride of your heart has deceived you,
You who dwell in the clefts of the rock,
Whose habitation is high;
(B)You who say in your heart, ‘Who will bring me down to the ground?’
4 (C)Though you ascend as high as the eagle,
And though you (D)set your nest among the stars,
From there I will bring you down,” says the Lord.
Jeremiah 49:7-16
New King James Version
Judgment on Edom
7 (A)Against Edom.
Thus says the Lord of hosts:
(B)“Is wisdom no more in Teman?
(C)Has counsel perished from the prudent?
Has their wisdom (D)vanished?
8 Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, O inhabitants of (E)Dedan!
For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him,
The time that I will punish him.
9 (F)If grape-gatherers came to you,
Would they not leave some gleaning grapes?
If thieves by night,
Would they not destroy until they have enough?
10 (G)But I have made Esau bare;
I have uncovered his secret places,
And he shall not be able to hide himself.
His descendants are plundered,
His brethren and his neighbors,
And (H)he is no more.
11 Leave your fatherless children,
I will preserve them alive;
And let your widows trust in Me.”
12 For thus says the Lord: “Behold, (I)those whose judgment was not to drink of the cup have assuredly drunk. And are you the one who will altogether go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink of it. 13 For (J)I have sworn by Myself,” says the Lord, “that (K)Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a [a]waste, and a curse. And all its cities shall be perpetual [b]wastes.”
14 (L)I have heard a message from the Lord,
And an ambassador has been sent to the nations:
“Gather together, come against her,
And rise up to battle!
15 “For indeed, I will make you small among nations,
Despised among men.
16 Your fierceness has deceived you,
The (M)pride of your heart,
O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock,
Who hold the height of the hill!
(N)Though you make your (O)nest as high as the eagle,
(P)I will bring you down from there,” says the Lord.

Isaiah 63:1-6
New King James Version
The Lord in Judgment and Salvation
63 Who is this who comes from Edom,
With dyed garments from Bozrah,
This One who is [a]glorious in His apparel,
Traveling in the greatness of His strength?—
“I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”
2 Why (A)is Your apparel red,
And Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?
3 “I have (B)trodden the winepress alone,
And from the peoples no one was with Me.
For I have trodden them in My anger,
And trampled them in My fury;
Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments,
And I have stained all My robes.
4 For the (C)day of vengeance is in My heart,
And the year of My redeemed has come.
5 (D)I looked, but (E)there was no one to help,
And I wondered
That there was no one to uphold;
Therefore My own (F)arm brought salvation for Me;
And My own fury, it sustained Me.
6 I have trodden down the peoples in My anger,
Made them drunk in My fury,
And brought down their strength to the earth.”

60 O God, (D)You have cast us off;
You have broken us down;
You have been displeased;
Oh, restore us again!

6 Now I know that the Lord saves His [a]anointed;
He will answer him from His holy heaven
With the saving strength of His right hand.

But we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
8 They have bowed down and fallen;
But we have risen and stand upright.
