And an ambassador has been sent to the nations:
“Gather together, come against her,
And rise up to battle!
The apride of your heart,
O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock,
Who hold the height of the hill!
bThough you make your cnest as high as the eagle,
dI will bring you down from there,” says the Lord.
aEveryone who goes by it will be astonished
And will hiss at all its plagues.
And their neighbors,” says the Lord,
“No one shall remain there,
Nor shall a son of man dwell in it.
| << Jeremiah 49:14 | Jeremiah 49:16 >> |
