⁸ "This is what the sovereign LORD says: 'Moab and Seir say, "Look, the house of Judah is like all the other nations." ⁹ So look, I am about to open up Moab's flank, eliminating the cities, including its frontier cities, the beauty of the land Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon, and Kiriathaim. ¹⁰ I will hand it over, along with the Ammonites, to the tribes of the east, so that the Ammonites will no longer be remembered among the nations. ¹¹ I will execute judgments against Moab. Then they will know that I am the LORD.' " ¹² "This is what the sovereign LORD says: 'Edom has taken vengeance against the house of Judah; they have made themselves fully culpable by taking vengeance on them. ¹³ So this is what the sovereign LORD says: I will stretch out my hand against Edom, and I will kill the people and animals within her, and I will make her desolate; from Teman to Dedan they will die by the sword. ¹⁴ I will exact my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel. They will carry out in Edom my anger and rage; they will experience my vengeance, declares the sovereign LORD.' " ¹⁵ "This is what the sovereign LORD says: 'The Philistines have exacted merciless revenge, showing intense scorn in their effort to destroy Judah with unrelenting hostility. ¹⁶ So this is what the sovereign LORD says: Take note, I am about to stretch out my hand against the Philistines. I will kill the Cherethites and destroy those who remain on the seacoast. ¹⁷ I will exact great vengeance upon them with angry rebukes. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I exact my vengeance upon them.' "
