Edom and Idumea
Edom and Idumea are two related but distinct terms relating to a historically contiguous population, but two separate, if adjacent, territories occupied at different periods of their history by the Edomites/Idumeans.
The Edomites first established a kingdom ("Edom") in the southern area of modern Jordan, and later migrated into southern parts of the Kingdom of Judah ("Idumea", or modern southern Israel/Negev) when Judah was first weakened, then destroyed by the Babylonians in the 6th century BC.
Edom is a term used in written sources relating to the late Bronze Age and to the entire Iron Age in the Levant, such as the Hebrew Bible and Egyptian and Mesopotamian records. In classical antiquity the cognate name Idumea was used to refer to a smaller area in the same general region.

Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them.
And the Lord

Satan,
Whence comest thou?
Then Nimrod answered the Lord,

***
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof,
then your eyes shall be opened,

For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth,

Herein thou hast done foolishly:
therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars

The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard,
and shall be removed like a cottage;
and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it;
and it shall fall,
and not rise again.
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that the Lord shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high,
and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
And they shall be gathered together,
**
For the grave cannot praise thee,
death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.
***
as prisoners are gathered in the pit,
and shall be shut up in the prison,

And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpillar:

****
he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
And wisdom
and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times,
and strength of salvation:
the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
Behold,
their valiant ones shall cry without:
the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
The highways lie waste,
the wayfaring man ceaseth:
he hath broken the covenant,
he hath despised the cities,
he regardeth no man.
The earth mourneth
and languisheth:
Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down:
Sharon is like a wilderness;
and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
Now will I rise,
saith the Lord;
ISamuelyea
now will I be exalted;
now will I lift up myself.
Ye shall conceive chaff,
ye shall bring forth stubble:
your breath,
as fire,
shall devour you.
And the people shall be as the burnings of lime:
as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
Hear,
ye that are far off,
what
ISamuelamallah
have done;
and,
ye that are near,
acknowledge my might.
The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites.
Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire?
who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
He that walketh righteously,
and speaketh uprightly;
he that despiseth the gain of oppressions,
that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes,
that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood,
and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;
He shall dwell on high:
his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks:
bread shall be given him;
his waters shall be sure.
Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty:
they shall behold the land that is very far off.
Thine heart shall meditate terror.
Where is the scribe?
where is the receiver?
where is he that counted the towers?
Thou shalt not see a fierce people,
a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive;
of a stammering tongue,
that thou canst not understand.
Look upon Zion,
the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation,
a tabernacle that shall not be taken down;
not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed,
neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.
But there the glorious
Lord ISamuelAmallah
will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams;
wherein shall go no galley with oars,
neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
For the Lord is our judge,
the Lord is our lawgiver,
the Lord is our king;
he
will save us.
Thy tacklings are loosed;
they could not well strengthen their mast,
they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided;
the lame take the prey.
And the inhabitant shall not say,
I am sick:
the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
Come near,
ye nations,
to hear;
and hearken,
ye people:
let the earth hear,
and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.
For the indignation
of
the
Lord ISamuelZion
is upon all nations,
and his fury upon all their armies:
he
hath utterly destroyed them,
he
hath delivered
them
to the
slaughter.
Their slain also shall be cast out,
and their stink shall come up out of their carcases,
and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved,
and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll:
and all their host shall fall down,
as the leaf falleth off from the vine,
and as a falling fig from the fig tree.
For my sword shall be bathed in heaven:
***
As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel,
because it was desolate,
so
will I do unto thee:
thou shalt be desolate,
O mount Seir,
and all Idumea,
even
all of it:
and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Also,
thou son of man,
prophesy unto the mountains of Israel,
and say,
Ye mountains of Israel,
hear the word of the Lord:
Thus saith the Lord God; Because the enemy hath said against you,
Aha,
even the ancient high places
are ours in possession:
Therefore prophesy and say,
Thus saith
the
Lord God:
Because they have made you desolate,
and swallowed you up on every side,
that ye might be a possession unto the residue of the heathen, and ye are taken up in the lips of talkers,
and are an infamy of the people:
Therefore,
ye mountains of Israel,
hear the word of the Lord God;
Thus saith the
Lord God ISamuelZiOn
to
the mountains,
and to the hills,
to the rivers,
and to the valleys,
to the desolate wastes,
and to the cities that are forsaken,
which became a prey - and derision to the residue of the heathen that are round about;
Therefore thus saith
the
Lord God;
Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the heathen,
**
Esau said to Jacob,
Feed me,
I pray thee,
with that same red pottage;
for I am faint:
therefore was his name called Edom.
And Jacob said,
Sell me this day thy birthright.
And Esau said,
Behold,
I am at the point to die:
and what profit shall this birthright - do - to me?
And Jacob said,
Swear to me - this day;
and he sware unto him:
and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles;
and he did eat and drink,
and rose up,
and - went his way:
thus Esau despised his birthright.
***
and against all Idumea,
which have appointed my land into their possession with the joy of all their heart,
with despiteful minds,
to cast it out for a prey.
Prophesy therefore
concerning
the
land of Israel,
and say unto the mountains,
and to the hills,
to the rivers,
and to the valleys,
Thus saith the Lord God;
Behold,
I have spoken in my jealousy and in my fury,
because ye have borne the shame of the heathen:
Therefore thus saith
the
Lord God;
I have lifted up mine hand, Surely the heathen that are about you,
they shall bear their shame.
But ye,
O mountains
of
Israel,
ye shall shoot forth your branches,
and yield your fruit to my people of Israel;
for they are at hand to come.
For,
behold,
I am for you,
and I will turn unto you,
and ye shall be tilled and sown:
***
behold,
it shall come down upon Idumea,
and upon the people of my curse,
to judgment.
The sword of the Lord is filled with blood,
it is made fat with fatness,
and with the blood of lambs and goats,
with the fat of the kidneys of rams:
for the Lord hath a sacrifice in Bozrah,
and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea.
And the uni-corns shall come down with them,
and the bullocks with the bulls;
and their land shall be soaked with blood,
and their dust made fat with fatness.
For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance,
and the year of recompences
for the controversy
of
Zion.
