Obadiah 4-6
Names of God Bible
4 Even though you fly high like an eagle
and build your nest among the stars,
I will bring you down from there,” declares Yahweh.
5 “If thieves or looters come to you during the night,
won’t they steal only until they’ve had enough?
You will be ruined!
If people come to pick your grapes,
won’t they leave a few grapes behind?
6 But you, Esau,[a] will lose everything.
Even your hidden treasures will be looted.

his hidden treasures pillaged!
