Amos 1:11

Thus says the Lord (Yahweh):
"For three transgressions of Edom,
yes, for four, I will not relent,
because he pursued his brother [Esau was Jacob's brother, see Gen. 27:41; Deut. 23:7] with the sword
and cast away all mercy (compassion, Hebr. rachamim)
and his anger tore and tore without ceasing
and he kept his anger forever.

τάδε λέγει κύριος ἐπὶ ταῖς τρισὶν ἀσεβείαις τῆς Ιδουμαίας καὶ ἐπὶ ταῖς τέσσαρσιν οὐκ ἀποστραφήσομαι αὐτούς ἕνεκα τοῦ διῶξαι αὐτοὺς ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλυμήνατο μήτραν ἐπὶ γῆς καὶ ἥρπασεν εἰς μαρτύριον φρίκην αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸ ὅρμημα αὐτοῦ ἐφύλαξεν εἰς νεῖκος
