9 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of ^aTyre, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom,
And did not remember the covenant of brotherhood. ‡

10 But I will send a fire upon the wall of Tyre,
Which shall devour its palaces.”

11 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of ^aEdom, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because he pursued his ^bbrother with the sword,
And cast off all pity;
His anger tore perpetually,
And he kept his wrath forever. ‡

12 But ^aI will send a fire upon Teman,
Which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.”  ‡

13 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of ^athe people of Ammon, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because they ripped open the women with child in Gilead,
That they might enlarge their territory. ‡

14 But I will kindle a fire in the wall of ^aRabbah,
And it shall devour its palaces,
^bAmid shouting in the day of battle,
And a tempest in the day of the whirlwind. ‡

15 ^aTheir king shall go into captivity,
He and his princes together,”
Says the Lord. ‡
