Obadiah 5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ “If ^(A)thieves came to you,
If ^[a]robbers by night—
O how you will be ruined!—
Would they not steal only ^[b]until they had enough?
If grape gatherers came to you,
^(B)Would they not leave some gleanings?
⁶ “O how Esau will be ^(C)ransacked,
And his hidden treasures searched out!
⁷ “All the ^(D)men ^[c]allied with you
Will send you forth to the border,
And the men at peace with you
Will deceive you and overpower you.
They who eat your ^(E)bread
Will set an ambush for you.
(There is ^(F)no understanding ^[d]in him.)
