Jeremiah 49:17

A Message Concerning Edom

¹⁶ You have frightened other people. Your arrogance has deceived you. You live on rocky cliffs and occupy the highest places in the hills. Even though you build your nest as high as an eagle, I will bring you down from there, proclaims Jehovah. ¹⁷ “Edom will become an object of horror; everyone who passes by it will be horrified and will hiss at all its wounds. ¹⁸ The same thing will happen to Edom that happened to Sodom and Gomorrah, when they and the nearby towns were destroyed. No one will ever live there again. I Jehovah have spoken.
