Jeremiah 49:7-13

7Concerning Edom, this is what the LORD of Hosts says:

“Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?Has counsel perished from the prudent?Has their wisdom decayed?8Turn and run!Lie low, O dwellers of Dedan,for I will bring disaster on Esauat the time I punish him.
9If grape gatherers came to you,would they not leave some gleanings?Were thieves to come in the night,would they not steal only what they wanted?10But I will strip Esau bare;I will uncover his hiding places,and he will be unable to conceal himself.His descendants will be destroyedalong with his relatives and neighbors,and he will be no more.
11Abandon your orphans; I will preserve their lives.Let your widows trust in Me.”

12For this is what the LORD says: “If those who do not deserve to drink the cup must drink it, can you possibly remain unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for you must drink it too. 13For by Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that Bozrah will become a desolation, a disgrace, a ruin, and a curse, and all her cities will be in ruins forever.”
