Jeremiah 49:16 in Context — Jeremiah 49
14 La fama oí, que de Jehová había sido enviado mensajero á las gentes, [diciendo]: Juntaos, y venid contra ella, y levantaos á la batalla.
15 Porque he aquí que pequeño te he puesto entre las gentes, menospreciado entre los hombres.
16 Tu arrogancia te engañó, y la soberbia de tu corazón, tú que habitas en cavernas de peñas, que tienes la altura del monte: aunque alces como águila tu nido, de allí te haré descender, dice Jehová.
17 Y será Edom en asolamiento: todo aquel que pasare por ella se espantará, y silbará sobre todas sus plagas.
18 Como el trastornamiento de Sodoma y de Gomorra, y de sus ciudades vecinas, dice Jehová, no morará allí nadie, ni la habitará hijo de hombre.
