Jeremiah 49:7-13

7Concerning 1EdomH112. ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, “Is thereH369 noH369 longerH5750 anyH5750 2wisdomH2451 in 3TemanH8487? Has good counselH6098 beenH6 lostH6 to the prudentH995? Has their wisdomH2451 decayedH5628?8FleeH5127 away, turnH6437 backH6437, dwellH3427 in the depthsH6009, O inhabitantsH3427 of 4DedanH1719, For I 5will bringH935 the 6disasterH343 of EsauH6215 upon him At the timeH6256 I 7punishH6485 him.98IfH518 grape gatherersH1219 cameH935 to you, Would they not leaveH7604 gleaningsH5955? IfH518 thievesH1590 came by nightH3915, They would destroyH7843 only 9until they had enoughH1767.10But I have 10strippedH2834 EsauH6215 bareH2834, I have uncoveredH1540 his hidingH4565 placesH4565 So that he will not be ableH3201 to concealH2247 himself; His 11offspringH2233 has been destroyedH7703 along with his 12relativesH251 And his neighborsH7934, and 13he is noH369 moreH369.11LeaveH5800 your 1415orphansH3490 behindH5800, I will keepH2421 them aliveH2421; And let your 16widowsH490 trustH982 in Me.”

12For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “BeholdH2009, those 17whoH834 were not sentencedH4941 to drinkH8354 the 18cupH3563 will certainlyH8354 drinkH8354 it, and are you the oneH1931 who will be 19completelyH5352 acquittedH5352? You will not be acquittedH5352, but you will certainlyH8354 drinkH8354 it. 13For I have 20swornH7650 by Myself,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “that 21BozrahH1224 will becomeH1961 an 22objectH8047 of horrorH8047, a reproachH2781, a ruinH2721 and a curseH7045; and allH3605 its citiesH5892 will becomeH1961 perpetualH5769 ruinsH2723.”
