Jeremiah 49:14

A Message Concerning Edom

¹³ For I have sworn [an oath] by Myself,” says the Lord, “that Bozrah will become an object of horror, a reproach, a ruin, and a curse; and all its cities will become perpetual ruins.” ¹⁴ 
I have heard a report from the Lord,
And a messenger has been sent to the nations, saying,
“Gather together and come against her,
And rise up for the battle.”
¹⁵
“For behold, [Edom] I have made you small among the nations
And despised among men.

Cause the horses to come up like bristly locusts [with their wings not yet released from their cases].

Ruler against ruler—
