Hey Dante,
You can do that like this:
tell application "BBEdit"
tell front text window
delete line 9
delete line 7
delete line 3
end tell
end tell
Or like this:
tell application "BBEdit"
tell front text window
delete line 3
delete line (7 - 1)
delete line (9 - 2)
end tell
end tell
Or you can use a text filter like this:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
sed '
3d
7d
9d
'
The text filter is a bit more efficient, because it does everything at once –
and therefore undo is only 1 step instead of 3.
