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
