They will lay their hands on Edom and Moab, and the Ammonites will be subject to them. | And they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines on the west; together shall they despoil the children of the east: they shall put forth their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. |
