They will be called the Land of Wickedness, and a people with whom the LORD is indignant forever. Young's Literal Translation Because Edom saith, ‘We have been made poor, And we turn back and we build the wastes,’ Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: They do build, and I do destroy, And [men] have called to them, ‘O region of wickedness,’ ‘O people whom Jehovah defied to the age.’ Holman Christian Standard Bible Though Edom says: “ We have been devastated, but we will rebuild the ruins,” the LORD of Hosts says this: “ They may build, but I will demolish.

So the LORD who rules over all responds, "They indeed may build, but I will overthrow. They will be known as the land of evil, the people with whom the LORD is permanently displeased.
