“Therefore hear the counsel of Yahweh, that he has taken against Edom,and his purposes that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman:Surely they will drag them away,the little ones of the flock.Surely he will make their habitation desolate over them.”
Jeremiah 49:20 (WEB)
Context Reading
18As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and its neighbor cities,” says Yahweh,“no man will dwell there,neither will any son of man live therein. 19“Behold, he will come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation;for I will suddenly make them run away from it,and whoever is chosen,I will appoint him over it.For who is like me?Who will appoint me a time?Who is the shepherd who will stand before me?” 20Therefore hear the counsel of Yahweh, that he has taken against Edom,and his purposes that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman:Surely they will drag them away,the little ones of the flock.Surely he will make their habitation desolate over them. 21The earth trembles at the noise of their fall;there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea. 22Behold, he will come up and fly as the eagle,and spread out his wings against Bozrah.The heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
