Obadiah 1:5-9

Obadiah 1:5-9

[5] If thieves  came  to thee, if robbers  by night,  (how art thou cut off!)  would they not have stolen  till they had enough?  if the grapegatherers  came  to thee, would they not leave  some grapes?  [6] How are the things of Esau  searched out!  how are his hidden  things sought up!  [7] All the men  of thy confederacy  have brought  thee even to the border:  the men  that were at peace  with thee have deceived  thee, and prevailed  against thee; they that eat thy bread  have laid  a wound  under thee: there is none understanding  in him. [8] Shall I not in that day,  saith  the LORD,  even destroy  the wise  men out of Edom,  and understanding  out of the mount  of Esau?  [9] And thy mighty  men, O Teman,  shall be dismayed,  to the end that every one  of the mount  of Esau  may be cut off  by slaughter.
