4 Even if you soar like the eagle, even if your nest is set among the stars, from there I will bring you down!” declares Yahweh:
5 “If thieves came to you, if plunderers of the night—How you have been destroyed!—would they not steal what they wanted? 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 have driven you up to the boundary; your confederates have deceived you and have prevailed against you. Those who eat your bread have set an ambush for you, there is no understanding of it.
8 On that day,” declares Yahweh, “will I not destroy the wise men from Edom, and understanding from the mountain of Esau?
9 And your warriors will be shattered, O Teman, so that everyone from the mountain of Esau will be cut off because of the slaughter!
10 “Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you and you will be cut off forever.
