Esau

When the king of Mo'av saw that the fighting was too much for him, he took with him 700 men armed with swords and tried to break through to the king of Edom; but they couldn't do it.

During his time Edom revolted against Y'hudah and set up its own king.

Nevertheless, since that day Edom has remained free of Y'hudah's domination. Livnah revolted at the same time.

He slaughtered 10,000 men of Edom in the Salt Valley and captured Sela in the war, renaming it Yokte'el, as it is today.

True, you have defeated Edom, and now you're ambitious. So enjoy the glory, but stay home! Why provoke calamity, to your own ruin, yours and Y'hudah's too?"

Avraham fathered Yitz'chak. The sons of Yitz'chak: 'Esav and Isra'el.

The sons of 'Esav: Elifaz, Re'u'el, Ye'ush, Ya'lam and Korach.

Following are the kings who ruled in the land of Edom before any king ruled over the people of Isra'el: Bela the son of B'or; the name of his city was Dinhavah.

Then Hadad died. The chieftains of Edom were: the chieftains of Timnah, 'Alvah, Y'tet,

Magdi'el and 'Iram. These were the chieftains of Edom.

which King David dedicated to ADONAI, along with the silver and gold that he had carried off from all the nations - from Edom, Mo'av, the people of 'Amon, the P'lishtim and 'Amalek.

David stationed garrisons in Edom, and all the people of Edom became subject to him. ADONAI gave victory to David wherever he went.

Shlomo went to 'Etzyon-Gever and Elot on the shore of the sea in the land of Edom.

But Amatzyah wouldn't listen. And this was from God, so that he could hand them over [to their enemies], because they had sought the gods of Edom.

For the leader. Set to "Lily of Testimony."A mikhtam of David for teaching about when he fought with Aram-Naharayim and with Aram-Tzovah, and Yo'av returned and killed 12,000 from Edom in the Salt Valley: God, you rejected us; you crushed us; you were angry; but now revive us.

Mo'av is my washpot; on Edom I throw my shoe; P'leshet, be crushed because of me!"

Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

the tents of Edom and the Yishma'elim, Mo'av and the Hagrim,

Mo'av is my washpot; on Edom I throw my shoe; Over P'leshet I shout in triumph."

Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

Remember, ADONAI, against the people of Edom the day of Yerushalayim's fall, how they cried, "Tear it down! Tear it down! Raze it to the ground!"

They will swoop down on the flank of the P'lishtim to the west. Together they will pillage the people to the east - they will put out their hand over Edom and Mo'av, and the people of 'Amon will obey them.

Who is this, coming from Edom, from Botzrah with clothing stained crimson, so magnificently dressed, so stately in his great strength? "It is I, who speak victoriously, I, well able to save."

Egypt, Y'hudah, Edom, the people of 'Amon and Mo'av, and all those living in the desert who cut the edges [of their beard]: "For although all the Goyim are uncircumcised, all the house of Isra'el have uncircumcised hearts."

Edom, Mo'av, and the people of 'Amon;
