¹⁸ As Sodom^(A) and Gomorrah^(B) were overthrown,
    along with their neighboring towns,”
says the Lord,
“so no one will live there;
    no people will dwell^(C) in it.

¹⁹ “Like a lion^(D) coming up from Jordan’s thickets^(E)
    to a rich pastureland,
I will chase Edom from its land in an instant.
    Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this?
Who is like^(F) me and who can challenge me?^(G)
    And what shepherd^(H) can stand against me?”

²⁰ Therefore, hear what the Lord has planned against Edom,^(I)
    what he has purposed^(J) against those who live in Teman:^(K)
The young of the flock^(L) will be dragged away;
    their pasture will be appalled at their fate.^(M)
21 At the sound of their fall the earth will tremble;^(N)
    their cry^(O) will resound to the Red Sea.^[a]

³³ “Hazor^(A) will become a haunt of jackals,^(B)
    a desolate^(C) place forever.
No one will live there;
    no people will dwell^(D) in it.”
