Jeremiah 49:19-21

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁹ Behold, like a lion coming up from the jungle of the Jordan against a strong sheepfold, I will suddenly make them^[a] run away from her; and I will appoint over her whomever I choose. For who is like me? Who will summon me? What shepherd can stand before me? ²⁰ Therefore hear the plan which the Lord has made against Edom and the purposes which he has formed against the inhabitants of Teman: Even the little ones of the flock shall be dragged away; surely their fold shall be appalled at their fate. ²¹ At the sound of their fall the earth shall tremble; the sound of their cry shall be heard at the Red Sea.
