Verse 19

Jeremiah 49:19

Literal Standard Version

19 Behold, he comes up as a lion, || Because of the rising of the Jordan, || To the enduring habitation, || But I cause to rest, || I cause him to run from off her, || And who is chosen? I lay a charge concerning her, || For who is like Me? And who convenes Me? And who is this shepherd who stands before Me?

Behold, like a lion he will rise from the pride of the Jordan to a steadfast dwelling, for they will drive us away from it, and who will appoint for me? For who is like me, and who will declare to me, and who is this shepherd that will stand before me?
