How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!
Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD , even destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
And thy mighty men , O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it .
And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD’s .
