Jeremiah 49:11-13
Lexham English Bible
11 Leave your orphans. I will let them[a] live.
And your widows, let them trust in me.”
12 For thus says Yahweh, “Look, those who are not condemned[b] to drink the cup must certainly drink it.[c] And are you the one who will go entirely unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for you must certainly drink it.[d] 13 For I have sworn by myself,” declares[e] Yahweh, “that Bozrah will become as a horror, as a disgrace, as a waste, and as a curse. And all her towns will be everlasting sites of ruins.”[f]

New International Version
11 ‘Leave your fatherless children;(A) I will keep them alive.
Your widows(B) too can depend on me.’”
12 This is what the Lord says: “If those who do not deserve to drink the cup(C) must drink it, why should you go unpunished?(D) You will not go unpunished, but must drink it. 13 I swear(E) by myself,” declares the Lord, “that Bozrah(F) will become a ruin and a curse,[a] an object of horror(G) and reproach;(H) and all its towns will be in ruins forever.”(I)
