Obadiah 7-9
International Standard Version
7 All your allies will force you out of the land,[a]
your associates will deceive you and prevail against you.
Your friends[b] will lay out a trap for you,
and you will[c] never understand it!
8 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
“will I not destroy the wise from Edom,
and those with understanding from Esau’s Mountain?
9 Teman, our mighty soldiers will be dismayed,
so that every man from Esau’s Mountain will be slaughtered.”[d]
