"How the people of Esau will be thoroughly plundered! Their hidden valuables will be ransacked!"
— Obadiah 1:6, NET Bible
“How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!”
“How are the things of Esau searched! how are his hidden treasures sought out! ”
“How Esau will be ransacked! How his hidden treasures are sought out!”
“How have they searched Esau, how have they sought out his hidden things?”
“How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his secret stores looked for!”
“How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!”
Your presumptuous heart has deceived you– you who reside in the safety of the rocky cliffs, whose home is high in the mountains. You think to yourself,‘No one can bring me down to the ground!’
Even if you were to soar high like an eagle, even if you were to make your nest among the stars, I can bring you down even from there!” says the LORD.
“If thieves came to rob you during the night, they would steal only as much as they wanted! If grape pickers came to harvest your vineyards, they would leave some behind for the poor! But you will be totally destroyed!
How the people of Esau will be thoroughly plundered! Their hidden valuables will be ransacked!
All your allies will force you from your homeland! Your treaty partners will deceive you and overpower you. Your trusted friends will set an ambush for you that will take you by surprise!
At that time,” the LORD says,“I will destroy the wise sages of Edom, the advisers from Esau’s mountain!
Your warriors will be shattered, O Teman, so that everyone will be destroyed from Esau’s mountain!
