Prophecy Directed At Edom

⁴
“I will destroy your cities
And you will become a wasteland.
Then you shall know [without any doubt] that I am the Lord. ⁵ Because you [descendants of Esau] have had an everlasting hatred [for Jacob (Israel)] and you handed over the sons of Israel to the power of the sword at the time of their tragedy, at the time of their final punishment [the Babylonian conquest], ⁶ therefore, as I live,” says the Lord God, “I will hand you over to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you since you have not hated bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.
