“Flee away, turn back, dwell in the depths,
O inhabitants of (A)Dedan,
For I [a]will bring the (B)disaster of Esau upon him
At the time I [b]punish him.

Would they not leave gleanings?
If thieves came by night,
They would destroy only [c]until they had enough.
10 “But I have (D)stripped Esau bare,
I have uncovered his hiding places
So that he will not be able to conceal himself;
His [d]offspring has been destroyed along with his [e]relatives
And his neighbors, and (E)he is no more.
