17 “Edom also shall be an astonishment;
(A)Everyone who goes by it will be astonished
And will hiss at all its plagues.
18 (B)As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah
And their neighbors,” says the Lord,
“No one shall remain there,
Nor shall a son of man dwell in it.

19 “Behold,(C) he shall come up like a lion from (D)the [a]floodplain of the Jordan
Against the dwelling place of the strong;
But I will suddenly make him run away from her.
And who is a chosen man that I may appoint over her?
For (E)who is like Me?
Who will arraign Me?
And (F)who is that shepherd
Who will withstand Me?”
