Obadiah 4-6
New American Standard Bible 1995
4 “Though you (A)build high like the eagle,
Though you set your nest among the (B)stars,
From there I will bring you down,” declares the Lord.
5 “If (C)thieves came to you,
If [a]robbers by night—
O how you will be ruined!—
Would they not steal only [b]until they had enough?
If grape gatherers came to you,
(D)Would they not leave some gleanings?
6 “O how Esau will be (E)ransacked,
And his hidden treasures searched out!

Obadiah 4-6
New International Version
4 Though you soar like the eagle
and make your nest(A) among the stars,
from there I will bring you down,”(B)
declares the Lord.(C)
5 “If thieves came to you,
if robbers in the night—
oh, what a disaster awaits you!—
would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
If grape pickers came to you,
would they not leave a few grapes?(D)
6 But how Esau will be ransacked,
his hidden treasures pillaged!
