Psalm 83:4-8
Legacy Standard Bible
4 They have said, “Come, and (A)let us wipe them out [a]as a nation,
That the (B)name of Israel be remembered no more.”
5 For they have [b](C)conspired together with one heart;
Against You they cut a covenant:
6 The tents of (D)Edom and the (E)Ishmaelites,
(F)Moab and the (G)Hagrites;
7 (H)Gebal and (I)Ammon and (J)Amalek,
(K)Philistia with the inhabitants of (L)Tyre;
8 (M)Assyria also has joined with them;
They have become [c]the power of the (N)children of Lot. [d]Selah.

Legacy Standard Bible
5 For (A)My sword is satiated in heaven;
Behold, it shall descend for judgment upon (B)Edom
And upon the people whom I have (C)devoted to destruction.
6 The sword of Yahweh is filled with blood;
It is [a]sated with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats,
With the fat of the kidneys of rams.
For Yahweh has a sacrifice in (D)Bozrah
And a great slaughter in the land of (E)Edom.

Word Against Edom
7 Concerning (A)Edom.
Thus says Yahweh of hosts,
“Is there no longer any (B)wisdom in (C)Teman?
Has counsel been lost to the understanding?
Has their wisdom decayed?
8 Flee away, turn back, inhabit the depths,
O inhabitants of (D)Dedan,
For I [a]will bring the (E)disaster of Esau upon him
At the time I [b]punish him.
9 (F)If grape gatherers came to you,
Would they not have gleanings remain?
If thieves came by night,
They would ruin only [c]until they had enough.
10 But I have (G)stripped Esau bare;
I have uncovered his hiding places,
So that he will not be able to conceal himself;
His seed has been destroyed along with his [d]relatives
And his neighbors, and (H)he is no more.
11 Leave your [e](I)orphans behind, I will keep them alive;
And let your (J)widows trust in Me.”
12 For thus says Yahweh, “Behold, those who are not under judgment to drink the (K)cup will certainly drink it, but are you the one who will go (L)completely unpunished? You will not go unpunished, but you will certainly drink it. 13 For I have (M)sworn by Myself,” declares Yahweh, “that (N)Bozrah will become an (O)object of horror, a reproach, a ruin, and an imprecation; and all its cities will become perpetual [f]ruins.”
14 I have (P)heard a message from Yahweh,
And an (Q)envoy is sent among the nations, saying,
“(R)Gather yourselves together and come against her,
And rise up for battle!”
15 “For behold, I have made you small among the nations,
Despised among men.
16 As for the terror of you,
The arrogance of your heart has deceived you,
O you who dwell in the clefts of [g]the (S)rock,
Who seize the height of the hill.
Though you make your nest as (T)high as an eagle’s,
I will (U)bring you down from there,” declares Yahweh.
17 “Edom will become [h]an (V)object of horror; everyone who passes by it will [i]be horrified and will (W)hiss at all its wounds. 18 Like the (X)overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah with its neighbors,” says Yahweh, “(Y)no one will live there, nor will a son of man sojourn in it. 19 (Z)Behold, one will come up like a lion from the [j](AA)thickets of the Jordan against an enduring pasture; for in an instant I will make him run away from it, and whoever is (AB)chosen I shall appoint over it. For who is (AC)like Me, and who will [k]summon Me into court? And who then is the shepherd (AD)who can stand against Me?”
20 Therefore hear the (AE)counsel of Yahweh which He has counseled against Edom, and His purposes which He has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: surely they will drag them off, even the little ones of the flock; surely He will make their pasture (AF)desolate because of them. 21 The (AG)earth has quaked at the noise of their downfall. There is an outcry! The noise of it has been heard at the [l]Red Sea. 22 Behold, [m]He will mount up and (AH)swoop like an eagle and spread out His wings [n]against Bozrah; and the (AI)hearts of the mighty men of Edom in that day will be like the heart of a woman in labor.

Sin
21 Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of (A)Edom,
Who inhabits the land of Uz;
But the (B)cup will pass on to you as well;
You will become drunk and make yourself naked.

Prophesy Against Edom
12 ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “Because (A)Edom has acted against the house of Judah by taking vengeance and has incurred grievous guilt and avenged themselves upon them,” 13 therefore thus says Lord Yahweh, “I will also (B)stretch out My hand against Edom and (C)cut off man and beast from it. And I will lay it waste; from (D)Teman even to (E)Dedan they will fall by the sword. 14 (F)I will lay My vengeance on Edom by the hand of My people Israel. Therefore, they will act in Edom (G)according to My anger and according to My wrath; thus they will know My vengeance,” declares Lord Yahweh.

Legacy Standard Bible
11 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (A)Edom and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because he (B)pursued his brother with the sword
While he corrupted his compassion;
And his anger also (C)tore continually,
And he kept his wrath forever.
Obadiah 10-14
Legacy Standard Bible
10 “Because of (A)violence to your brother Jacob,
[a]You will be covered with shame,
(B)And you will be cut off forever.
11 On the day that you (C)stood aloof,
On the day that strangers took his wealth captive
And foreigners entered his gate
And (D)cast lots for Jerusalem—
(E)You too were as one of them.
12 (F)Now do not look on your brother’s day with triumph,
The day of his misfortune.
And (G)do not be glad over the sons of Judah
In the day when they perish;
And (H)do not [b]let your mouth speak great things
In the day of their distress.
13 Do not enter the gate of My people
In the (I)day of their disaster.
Indeed, you, do not look on their calamity with triumph
In the day of their disaster.
And do not (J)send out for their wealth
In the day of their disaster.
14 Do not (K)stand at the fork of the road
To cut down those among them who escape;
And do not deliver over their survivors
In the day of their distress.
