Obadiah 6-8
New American Standard Bible
6 Oh how Esau will be (A)searched,
And his hidden treasures searched out!
7 All the (B)people [a]allied with you
Will send you to the border,
And the people at peace with you
Will deceive you and overpower you.
They who eat your (C)bread
Will set an ambush for you.
(There is (D)no understanding [b]in him.)
8 Will I not on that day,” declares the Lord,
“(E)Eliminate wise men from Edom,
And understanding from the mountain of Esau?

New International Version
6 But how Esau will be ransacked,
his hidden treasures pillaged!
7 All your allies(A) will force you to the border;
your friends will deceive and overpower you;
those who eat your bread(B) will set a trap for you,[a]
but you will not detect it.
8 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
“will I not destroy(C) the wise men of Edom,
those of understanding in the mountains of Esau?
