Jeremiah 49:7-9
New American Standard Bible
Prophecy against Edom
7 Concerning (A)Edom.
This is what the Lord of armies says:
“Is there no longer any (B)wisdom in (C)Teman?
Has good advice been lost by the prudent?
Has their wisdom decayed?
8 Flee away, turn back, dwell in the depths,
You inhabitants of (D)Dedan,
For I [a]will bring the (E)disaster of Esau upon him
At the time I [b]punish him.
9 (F)If grape pickers came to you,
Would they not leave gleanings?
If thieves came by night,
They would destroy only what was sufficient for them.

A Message About Edom(A)(B)
7 Concerning Edom:(C)
This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?(D)
Has counsel perished from the prudent?
Has their wisdom decayed?
8 Turn and flee, hide in deep caves,(E)
you who live in Dedan,(F)
for I will bring disaster on Esau
at the time when I punish him.
9 If grape pickers came to you,
would they not leave a few grapes?
If thieves came during the night,
would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
