10 The fires will ·burn [L not be quenched] night and day;
    the smoke will rise from Edom forever.
·Year after year [L From generation to generation] that land will be ·empty [desolate];
    no one will ever ·travel [pass] through that land again.
11 ·Birds [Desert owls; or Pelicans] and ·small animals [screech owl; or porcupine] will own that land,
    and owls and ravens will live there.
·God [L He] will ·make it an empty wasteland [L stretch over it a measuring line of confusion/chaos];
    ·it will have nothing left in it [L and the plumb line of desolation; C like a careful craftsman, God has planned Edom’s judgment].
12 The ·important people [nobles] will have ·no one left to rule them [or nothing to call a kingdom];
    the ·leaders [officials; princes] will ·all be gone [or be nothing].
