Jeremiah 49:15-17
Legacy Standard Bible
15 “For behold, I have made you small among the nations,
Despised among men.
16 As for the terror of you,
The arrogance of your heart has deceived you,
O you who dwell in the clefts of [a]the (A)rock,
Who seize the height of the hill.
Though you make your nest as (B)high as an eagle’s,
I will (C)bring you down from there,” declares Yahweh.
17 “Edom will become [b]an (D)object of horror; everyone who passes by it will [c]be horrified and will (E)hiss at all its wounds.

New International Version
15 “Now I will make you small among the nations,
despised by mankind.
16 The terror you inspire
and the pride(A) of your heart have deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks,(B)
who occupy the heights of the hill.
Though you build your nest(C) as high as the eagle’s,
from there I will bring you down,”
declares the Lord.
17 “Edom will become an object of horror;(D)
all who pass by will be appalled and will scoff
because of all its wounds.(E)
