49:13For I solemnly swear,”29 says the Lord, “that Bozrah30 will become a pile of ruins. It will become an object of horror and ridicule, an example to be used in curses.31 All the towns around it will lie in ruins forever.”
Footnotes
- 29 Heb “I swear by myself.” See 22:5 and the study note there.
- 30 Bozrah appears to have been the chief city in Edom, its capital city (see its parallelism with Edom in Isa 34:6; 63:1; Jer 49:22). The reference to “its towns” (translated here “all the towns around it”) could then be a reference to all the towns in Edom. It was located about twenty-five miles southeast of the southern end of the Dead Sea apparently in the district of Teman (see the parallelism in Amos 1:12).
- 31 See the study note on for the rendering of this term.
