6 How Esau has been pillaged,
his treasures searched out!
7 All your allies have deceived you;
they have driven you to the border;
your confederates have prevailed against you;
those who ate your food have set a trap for you—
there is no understanding.(A)
8 On that day, says the Lord,
I will destroy the wise out of Edom
and understanding out of Mount Esau.(B)

his hidden treasures pillaged!

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