Obadiah 5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 “If thieves came to you, if plunderers of the night—How you have been destroyed!—would they not steal what they wanted?[a] If grape gatherers came, would they not leave gleanings? 6 How Esau has been pillaged; his treasures have been ransacked! 7 All of your allies[b] have driven you up to the boundary; your confederates[c] have deceived you and have prevailed against you. Those who eat your bread have set an ambush for you, there is no[d] understanding of it.[e]
