6 But afterward, I will return the captives of Ammon, declares the Lord.
7 This is what the Lord of Armies says about Edom:Is there no longer any wisdom in Teman?Has wisdom disappeared from your people?Has their wisdom vanished?
8 Turn and run.Hide in deep caves, inhabitants of Dedan.When I punish them,I will bring disaster on the descendants of Esau.
9 If people come to pick your grapes,won’t they leave a few grapes behind?If thieves come during the night,won’t they steal only until they’ve had enough?
10 Yet, I will strip the descendants of Esau.I will find their hiding places.They won’t be able to hide.Their children and relatives will be destroyed.None of their neighbors will say,
11 “Abandon your orphans, and I will keep them alive.Your widows can trust me.”
12 This is what the Lord says: If those who don’t deserve to drink from the cup still drink from it, why should you go unpunished? You won’t go unpunished. You must drink from it.
