Jeremiah 49:12-14
Authorized (King James) Version
12 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. 13 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.
14 I have heard a rumour 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.
Jeremiah 49:12-14
New International Version
12 This is what the Lord says: “If those who do not deserve to drink the cup(A) must drink it, why should you go unpunished?(B) You will not go unpunished, but must drink it. 13 I swear(C) by myself,” declares the Lord, “that Bozrah(D) will become a ruin and a curse,[a] an object of horror(E) and reproach;(F) and all its towns will be in ruins forever.”(G)
14 I have heard a message from the Lord;
an envoy was sent to the nations to say,
“Assemble yourselves to attack it!
Rise up for battle!”
