Jeremiah 49:21-23
New International Reader's Version
21 When the earth hears Edom fall, it will shake.
The people’s cries will be heard all the way to the Red Sea.
22 Look! An enemy is coming.
It’s like an eagle diving down.
It will spread its wings over Bozrah.
At that time the hearts of Edom’s soldiers
will tremble in fear.
They’ll be like the heart of a woman having a baby.
A Message About Damascus

“The people of Hamath and Arpad are terrified.
They have heard bad news.
They have lost all hope.
They are troubled like the rolling sea.
