11Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Edom and for four I will not revoke the punishment,e because he pursued his brother with the sword! He stifled his compassion and his anger tore them apart continually,f and he kept his rage forever. 12So I will send a fire against Teman and it will devour the citadel fortresses of Bozrah.”

13Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Ammon and for four I will not revoke the punishment,g because they ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead in order to enlarge their territory! 14So I will kindle a fire against the wall of Rabbah and it will devour its citadel fortresses with a war cry on the day of battle, with a storm on the day of the violent tempest. 15And their king will go into exile, he and his commanders together,” says Yahweh.

2Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Moab and for four I will not revoke the punishment,a because he burned to lime the bones of the king of Edom. 2So I will send a fire against Moab and it will devour the citadel fortresses of Kerioth, and Moab will die amid uproar, amid war cries and amid the sound of a horn. 3And I will cut off the ruler from its midst and I will kill all of its officials with him,” says Yahweh.
