Jeremiah 49:11-13
21st Century King James Version
11 Leave thy fatherless children; I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in Me.”

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.”
