Pillage and Slaughter Will Repay Edom’s Cruelty

If thieves came to you,
    if plunderers by night—
    how you have been destroyed!—
    would they not steal only enough for themselves?
If grape gatherers came to you,
    would they not leave gleanings?
How Esau has been pillaged,
    his treasures sought out!

your confederates have prevailed against you;
    your trusted friends have set a trap under you—
    there is no understanding of it.
