Lamentations 4:21

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom, that dwellest in the land of Uz; the cup also shall pass through unto thee: thou shalt be drunken, and shalt make thyself naked.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

Go ahead and celebrate, Edom — you think you're sitting pretty in your comfortable spot. But that same cup of judgment is coming your way too. You'll be just as wrecked and exposed as everyone else.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Nobody gets to stay comfortable forever when they're celebrating other people's downfall.
