9. Edom’s rivers will be like hot tar. Edom’s ground will be like burning sulfur.
10. The fires will burn day and night—no one will stop the fire. The smoke will rise from Edom forever. The land will be destroyed forever and ever. No one will ever travel through that land again.
11. Birds and small animals will own that land. It will be a home for owls and ravens. God will leave that land in ruins. People will call it “the empty desert.”
12. The free men and leaders will all be gone, and there will be nothing left for them to rule.
