Jeremiah 49:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 As when Sodom, Gomorrah, and their neighbors were overthrown—oracle of the Lord—no one shall live in it, nor anyone settle there.(A)
19 As when a lion comes up from a thicket of the Jordan
to a permanent pasture,
So in an instant, I will chase them off;
I will establish there whomever I choose.
For who is like me? Who holds me accountable?
What shepherd can stand against me?(B)
20 Therefore, listen to the strategy
the Lord devised for Edom;
The plans he has drawn up
against the inhabitants of Teman:
They shall be dragged away, even the smallest of the flock;
their pasture shall be aghast because of them.
Jeremiah 49:18-20
New International Version
18 As Sodom(A) and Gomorrah(B) were overthrown,
along with their neighboring towns,”
says the Lord,
“so no one will live there;
no people will dwell(C) in it.
