Jeremiah 49:20-22
Modern English Version
Jeremiah 49:20-22
Modern English Version
20 Therefore hear the counsel of the Lord that He has planned against Edom,
and His purposes that He has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman:
Surely the least of the flock will drag them out;
surely He will make their habitations desolate because of them.
21 The earth has shaken at the noise of their fall;
there is an outcry. Its noise has been heard at the Red Sea.
22 He will mount up and fly as the eagle
and spread his wings against Bozrah;
and in that day the hearts of the mighty men of Edom
will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

their cry(G) will resound to the Red Sea.[a]
