Concerning Edom : '
Thus said Jehovah of Hosts :
Is wisdom no more in Teman ?
Perished hath counsel from the intelligent ?
Vanished hath their wisdom ?

Flee ,
turn ,
go deep to dwell ,
ye inhabitants of Dedan ,
For the calamity of Esau I brought in upon him ,
The time I inspected him .

Jeremiah:49:9 @
If gatherers have come in to thee ,
They do not leave gleanings ,
If thieves in the night ,
They have destroyed their sufficiency !

Jeremiah:49:10 @
For I --
I have made Esau bare ,
I have uncovered his secret places ,
And to be hidden he is not able ,
Spoiled [
is ]
his seed ,
and his brethren ,
And his neighbours ,
and he is not .

Jeremiah:49:11 @
Leave thine orphans --
I do keep alive ,
And thy widows --
on Me trust ye ,

For thus said Jehovah :
They whose judgment is not to drink of the cup ,
Do certainly drink ,
And thou [
art ]
he that is entirely acquitted !
Thou art not acquitted ,
for thou certainly drinkest .

Jeremiah:49:13 @
For ,
by Myself ,
I have sworn ,
An affirmation of Jehovah ,
That for a desolation ,
for a reproach ,
For a waste ,
and for a reviling --
is Bozrah ,
And all her cities are for wastes age-during .

Jeremiah:49:14 @
A report I have heard from Jehovah ,
And an ambassador among nations is sent ,
Gather yourselves and come in against her ,
And rise ye for battle .

For ,
lo ,
little I have made thee among nations ,
Despised among men .

Jeremiah:49:16 @
Thy terribleness hath lifted thee up ,
The pride of thy heart ,
O dweller in clefts of the rock ,
Holding the high place of the height ,
For thou makest high as an eagle thy nest ,
From thence I bring thee down ,
An affirmation of Jehovah .

Jeremiah:49:17 @
And Edom hath been for a desolation ,
Every passer by her is astonished ,
And doth hiss because of all her plagues .
ylt @
Jeremiah:49:18 @
As the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah ,
And its neighbours ,
said Jehovah ,
No one doth dwell there ,
Nor sojourn in her doth a son of man .

Jeremiah:49:19 @
Lo ,
as a lion he cometh up ,
Because of the rising of the Jordan ,
Unto the enduring habitation ,
But I cause to rest ,
I cause him to run from off her ,
And who is chosen ?
concerning her I lay a charge ,
For who is like Me ?
and who conveneth Me ?
And who [
is ]
this shepherd who standeth before Me ?

Jeremiah:49:20 @
Therefore ,
hear ye the counsel of Jehovah ,
That He hath counselled concerning Edom ,
And His devices that He hath devised Concerning the inhabitants of Teman :
Drag them out do not little ones of the flock ,
Make desolate over them doth he not their habitation ?

Jeremiah:49:21 @
From the noise of their fall hath the earth shaken ,
The cry --
at the sea of Suph is its voice heard .

Jeremiah:49:22 @
Lo ,
as an eagle he cometh up ,
and flieth ,
And he spreadeth his wings over Bozrah ,
And the heart of the mighty of Edom hath been in that day ,
As the heart of a distressed woman !'
