Jeremiah 49:7-9

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?
    Has counsel perished from the prudent?
    Has their wisdom vanished?^(A)
8 Flee; turn back; get down low,
    inhabitants of Dedan!
For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him,
    the time when I punish him.^(B)
9 If grape gatherers came to you,
    would they not leave gleanings?
If thieves came by night,
    even they would pillage only what they wanted.^(C)
