Jeremiah 49:16-18
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
16 The horror you inspire has deceived you,
and the pride of your heart,
you who live in the clefts of the rock,[a]
who hold the height of the hill.
Though you make your nest as high as the eagle’s,
I will bring you down from there,
says the Lord.
17 “Edom shall become a horror; every one who passes by it will be horrified and will hiss because of all its disasters. 18 As when Sodom and Gomor′rah and their neighbor cities were overthrown, says the Lord, no man shall dwell there, no man shall sojourn in her.
