Jeremiah 49:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 Leave thy [a]fatherless children, and I will preserve them alive, and let thy widows trust in me.
12 For thus saith the Lord, [b]Behold, they whose judgment was not to drink of the cup, have assuredly drunken, and art thou he that shall escape free? thou shalt not go free, but thou shalt surely drink of it.
13 For I have sworn by myself, saith the Lord, that [c]Bozrah shall be waste, and for a reproach, and a desolation, and a curse, and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual desolations.
