Jeremiah 49:7-13

7Concerning EdomH123, this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 saysH559:

“Is there noH369 longerH5750 wisdomH2451 in TemanH8487?Has counselH6098 perishedH6 from the prudentH995?Has their wisdomH2451 decayedH5628?8TurnH6437 and runH5127!LieH3427 lowH6009, O dwellersH3427 of DedanH1719,forH3588 I will bringH935 disasterH343 onH5921 EsauH6215at the timeH6256 I punish himH6485.

9IfH518 grape gatherersH1219 cameH935 to you,would they notH3808 leaveH7604 some gleaningsH5955 H518?Were thievesH1590 to come in the nightH3915,would they not stealH7843 only what they wantedH1767?10ButH3588 IH589 will strip EsauH6215 bareH2834 ;I will uncoverH1540 his hiding placesH4565,and he will be unableH3808 H3201 to conceal himselfH2247.His descendantsH2233 will be destroyedH7703along with his relativesH251 and neighborsH7934,and he will be no moreH369.

11AbandonH5800 your orphansH3490; IH589 will preserve their livesH2421.Let your widowsH490 trustH982 in MeH5921.”

12ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559: “IfH2009 those whoH834 do notH369 deserveH4941 to drinkH8354 the cupH3563 must drink itH8354, can youH859 H1931 possibly remain unpunishedH5352? You will notH3808 go unpunishedH5352, forH3588 you must drink it tooH8354. 13ForH3588 by Myself I have swornH7650, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068, thatH3588 BozrahH1224 will becomeH1961 a desolationH8047, a disgraceH2781, a ruinH2721, and a curseH7045, and allH3605 her citiesH5892 will beH1961 in ruinsH2723 foreverH5769.”
