Jeremiah 49:11-15 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

11. Leave behind your orphans. I will make sure that they live. And your widows will hope in me."

12. For thus says the Lord: "Behold, those who judged that they would not drink the cup, will certainly drink. And so, will you be released as if you were innocent? You will not be released as if innocent. Instead, you shall certainly drink.

13. For I have sworn by myself, says the Lord, that Bozrah will be a desolation, and a disgrace, and a wasteland, and a curse. And all her cities will be a perpetual wilderness.

14. I have heard a report from the Lord, and an legate has been sent to the nations: 'Gather yourselves together, and go forth against her, and let us rise up to battle.'

15. For behold, I have made you little among the nations, contemptible among men.
