Jeremiah 49:7–13

7  sConcerning Edom, thus saith the Lord of hosts;

tIs wisdom no more in uTeman?

vIs counsel perished from the prudent?

Is their wisdom vanished?

8  wFlee ye, ||turn back,

wDwell deep, O inhabitants of xDedan;

For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him,

yThe time that I will visit him.

9  zIf grapegatherers come to thee, would they not leave some agleaning grapes?

zIf thieves by night, they will destroy †till they have enough.

10  But bI have made Esau bare,

I have uncovered his secret places,

And he shall not be able to hide himself:

His seed is spoiled, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and che is not.

11  Leave thy fatherless children, I dwill preserve them alive;

And let thy widows trust in me.

12  For thus saith the Lord;

Behold, they whose judgment was enot to drink of the cup have assuredly drunken;

And fart thou he that shall altogether go unpunished?

Thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink of it.

13  For gI have sworn by myself, saith the Lord,

That hBozrah shall become ia desolation,

kA reproach, a waste, and la curse;

And all the cities thereof shall be mperpetual wastes.
