Joel 3:19

19 Egypt will be desolate
and Edom will be a desolate wilderness,
because of the violence they did to the people of Judah, ^{▼▼ Heb “violence of the sons of Judah.” The phrase “of the sons of Judah” is an objective genitive (cf. KJV “the violence against the children of Judah”; NAB, NIV, NRSV “violence done to the people of Judah”). It refers to injustices committed against the Judeans, not violence that the Judeans themselves had committed against others.}
in whose land they shed innocent blood.
