20 aTherefore hear the counsel of the Lord that He has taken against Edom,
And His purposes that He has proposed against the inhabitants of Teman:
Surely the least of the flock shall1 draw them out;
Surely He shall make their dwelling places desolate with them.
And His purposes that He has proposed against the inhabitants of Teman:
Surely the least of the flock shall1 draw them out;
Surely He shall make their dwelling places desolate with them.
22 Behold, aHe shall come up and fly like the eagle,
And spread His wings over Bozrah;
The heart of the mighty men of Edom in that day shall be
Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
And spread His wings over Bozrah;
The heart of the mighty men of Edom in that day shall be
Like the heart of a woman in birth pangs.
Judgment on Damascus
23 aAgainst Damascus.
b“Hamath and Arpad are shamed,
For they have heard bad news.
They are fainthearted;
cThere is1 trouble on the sea;
It cannot be quiet.

24 Damascus has grown feeble;
She turns to flee,
And fear has seized her.
aAnguish and sorrows have taken her like a woman in1 labor.

And fear has seized her.
aAnguish and sorrows have taken her like a woman in1 labor.
