Jeremiah 49:9-11

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁹ If grape-gatherers came to you,
    would they not leave gleanings?
If thieves came by night,
    would they not destroy only enough for themselves?
¹⁰ But I have stripped Esau bare,
    I have uncovered his hiding places,
    and he is not able to conceal himself.
His children are destroyed, and his brothers,
    and his neighbors; and he is no more.
¹¹ Leave your fatherless children, I will keep them alive;
    and let your widows trust in me.”
