Bible Verses About The Edomites: Punishment for persecuting Israel

"For my sword has drunk its fill in heaven; now it descends on Edom to judge them, the people I have doomed to destruction."

There is a sword that belongs to ADONAI. It is filled with blood, gorged with fat, filled with the blood of lambs and goats, gorged with the fat of the kidneys of rams. For ADONAI has a sacrifice in Botzrah, a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

The wild oxen will fall with them, the young bulls with the strong, mature ones. Their land will be drunk with blood and their dust made greasy with fat.

For ADONAI has a day of vengeance, a year of requital for fighting with Tziyon.

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."

Why is your apparel red, your clothes like someone treading a winepress?

"I have trodden the winepress alone; from the peoples, not one was with me. So I trod them in my anger, trampled them in my fury; so their lifeblood spurted out on my clothing, and I have stained all my garments;

for the day of vengeance that was in my heart and my year of redemption have come.
