19 “Behold,(A) he shall come up like a lion from (B)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 (C)who is like Me?
Who will arraign Me?
And (D)who is that shepherd
Who will withstand Me?”

20 (E)Therefore hear the counsel of the Lord that He has taken against Edom,
And His purposes that He has proposed against the inhabitants of Teman:
Surely the least of the flock shall [b]draw them out;
Surely He shall make their dwelling places desolate with them.
21 (F)The earth shakes at the noise of their fall;
At the cry its noise is heard at the Red Sea.
