Thus  says the LORD GOD concerning Edom,
We have heard a report from the LORD,
and a messenger has been sent among the nations;
"Rise up! Let us rise against it for battle!"

I will surely make you least among the nations;
you shall be utterly despised .

Your proud heart has  deceived you,
you that live in the clefts of the rock,
whose dwelling is in the heights.

You say in your heart ,
"Who will bring me down to the ground!"

Though you soar aloft like the eagle,
though your nest is set
among the stars
from there I will bring you down.
says the LORD.
