5 If thieves came to you, robbers by night—how you have been destroyed!—would they not steal merely till they had enough?If grape pickers came to you,would they not leave some gleanings?
6 How Esau has been searched out,his treasures hunted down!
7 To the border they have driven you—all your allies;Your partners have deceived you,they have overpowered you;Those who eat your breadwill replace you with foreigners,who have no understanding.
8 On that day—oracle of the Lord—will I notmake the wise disappear from Edom,and understanding from Mount Esau?
9 Teman, your warriors will be terror-stricken,so that everyone on Mount Esau will be cut down.
10 Because of violence to your brother Jacob,disgrace will cover you,you will be done away with forever!
11 On the day you stood by,the day strangers carried off his possessions,And foreigners entered his gatesand cast lots for Jerusalem,you too were like one of them.
