I HAVE HEARD A RUMOR FROM THE LORD
JEREMIAH 49:10-16
BUT I HAVE MADE ESAU BARE,
I HAVE UNCOVERED
HIS SECRET PLACES,
AND HE SHALL NOT
BE ABLE TO HIDE HIMSELF:
HIS SEED IS SPOILED,
HIS BRETHREN, AND HIS NEIGHBORS,
AND HE IS NOT.
LEAVE THY
FATHERLESS CHILDREN,
I WILL PRESERVE THEM ALIVE,
AND LET THY WIDOWS TRUST IN ME.
FOR THUS SAITH THE LORD;
BEHOLD, THEY WHOSE
JUDGMENT WAS NOT TO
DRINK OF THE CUP
HAVE ASSUREDLY DRUNKEN;
AND ART THOU
HE THAT SHALL
ALTOGETHER GO UNPUNISHED?
THOU SHALT NOT GO UNPUNISHED,
BUT THOU SHALT SURELY DRINK OF IT.
FOR I HAVE SWORN BY MYSELF,
SAITH THE LORD, THAT BOZRAH SHALL BECOME
A DESOLATION, A REPROACH,
A WASTE, AND A CURSE;
AND ALL THE CITIES
THEREOF SHALL BE
PERPETUAL WASTES.
I HAVE HEARD A RUMOR FROM THE LORD,
AND AN AMBASSADOR
IS SENT UNTO THE HEATHEN,
SAYING, GATHER
YE TOGETHER, AND
COME AGAINST HER,
AND RISE UP TO THE BATTLE.
FOR, LO, I WILL MAKE THEE
SMALL AMONG THE HEATHEN,
AND DESPISED AMONG MEN.
THY TERRIBLENESS HATH
DECEIVED THEE,
AND
THE PRIDE OF THINE HEART,
O THOU THAT DWELLEST
IN THE CLEFTS OF THE ROCK,
THAT HOLDEST THE
HEIGHT OF THE HILL:
THOUGH THOU SHOULDEST
MAKE THY NEST AS
HIGH AS THE EAGLE,
I WILL BRING THEE
DOWN FROM THENCE, SAITH THE LORD.
LOVE
