Obadiah 6-8
Modern English Version
6 How the things of Esau have been ransacked!
How his hidden treasures hunted out!
7 All your confederates have driven you to the border;
your allies have deceived and prevailed against you.
Those who eat your bread have set a trap for you.
You will not detect it.
8 On that day, says the Lord,
I will destroy the wise out of Edom,
and understanding out of Mount Esau.

“will I not destroy(C) the wise men of Edom,
those of understanding in the mountains of Esau?
