Jeremiah 49:6-12 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

6. “But afterward I will reverse the captivity of the children of Ammon,”says the Lord.

7. Of Edom, the Lord of Hosts says:“Is wisdom no more in Teman?Has counsel perished from the prudent?Has their wisdom vanished?

8. Flee! Turn back!Dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan;for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him when I visit him.

9. If grape gatherers came to you,would they not leave some gleaning grapes?If thieves came by night,wouldn’t they steal until they had enough?

10. But I have made Esau bare,I have uncovered his secret places,and he will not be able to hide himself.His offspring is destroyed,with his brothers and his neighbors;and he is no more.

11. Leave your fatherless children.I will preserve them alive.Let your widows trust in me.”

12. For the Lord says: “Behold, they to whom it didn’t pertain to drink of the cup will certainly drink; and are you he who will altogether go unpunished? You won’t go unpunished, but you will surely drink.
