Obadiah 6-8

6 “Oh, how Esau shall be searched out!
How his hidden treasures shall be sought after!
7 All the men in your confederacy
Shall force you to the border;
(A)The men at peace with you
Shall deceive you and prevail against you.
Those who eat your bread shall lay a [a]trap for you.
(B)No[b] one is aware of it.

“Even destroy the wise men from Edom,
And understanding from the mountains of Esau?
