I will not turn away its punishment;
because they delivered up the whole community to Edom,
and didn’t remember the brotherly covenant;

The LORD says:
“For three transgressions of Gaza, yes, for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
because they carried away captive the whole community,
to deliver them up to Edom;
but I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza,
and it will devour its palaces.
I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod,
and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon;
and I will turn my hand against Ekron;
and the remnant of the Philistines will perish,”
says the Lord GOD.

and it will devour its palaces.”
The LORD says:
“For three transgressions of Edom, yes, for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
because he pursued his brother with the sword
and cast off all pity,
and his anger raged continually,
and he kept his wrath forever;
but I will send a fire on Teman,
and it will devour the palaces of Bozrah.”
