5 I will bring terror on youfrom every side,”says the Master, the Lord of heaven’s armies.“You will all be forced away.No one will be able to gather you.
6 “But the time will comewhen I will make good things happen to the Ammonites again,”says the Lord.
7 This message is about Edom. This is what the Lord of heaven’s armies says:“Is there no more wisdom in Teman?Can the wise men of Edom no longer give good advice?Have they lost their wisdom?
8 You people living in Dedan,run away and hide in deep caves.This is because I will punishthe people of Esau with disaster for what they did.
9 If workers came and picked the grapes from your vines,they would leave a few grapes behind.If robbers came at night,they would steal only enough for themselves.
10 But I will strip Esau bare.I will find all their hiding places.They will not be able to hide from me.The children, relatives and neighbors will die.
