6 But afterward I will bring backThe captives of the people of Ammon,” says the Lord.
7 Against Edom.Thus says the Lord of hosts:“Is wisdom no more in Teman?Has counsel perished from the prudent?Has their wisdom vanished?
8 Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, O inhabitants of Dedan!For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him,The time that I will punish him.
9 If grape-gatherers came to you,Would they not leave some gleaning grapes?If thieves by night,Would they not destroy until they have enough?
10 But I have made Esau bare;I have uncovered his secret places,And he shall not be able to hide himself.His descendants are plundered,His brethren and his neighbors,And he is no more.
11 Leave your fatherless children,I will preserve them alive;And let your widows trust in Me.”
12 For thus says the Lord: “Behold, those whose judgment was not to drink of the cup have assuredly drunk. And are you the one who will altogether go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink of it.
