Obadiah 6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ How Esau has been looted,
        his treasures taken away!
⁷ All those who were your allies
        have driven you to the border.
    Those who were on your side tricked you
        and triumphed over you.
They are setting your own bread as a trap under you,^[a]
        but you don’t see it coming.
⁸ Won’t I on that day, says the Lord,
        destroy the wise from Edom
        and understanding from Mount Esau?
