Obadiah 7-9
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

7 They have sent thee out even to the border: all the men of thy confederacy have deceived thee: the men of thy peace have prevailed against thee: they that eat with thee shall lay snares under thee: there is no wisdom in him.

8 Shall not I in that day, saith the Lord, destroy the wise out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?

9 And thy valiant men of the south shall be afraid, that man may be cut off from the mount of Esau.

Obadiah 7-9
New International Version

7 All your allies(A) will force you to the border;
    your friends will deceive and overpower you;
those who eat your bread(B) will set a trap for you,[a]
    but you will not detect it.

8 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
    “will I not destroy(C) the wise men of Edom,
    those of understanding in the mountains of Esau?
9 Your warriors, Teman,(D) will be terrified,
    and everyone in Esau’s mountains
    will be cut down in the slaughter.
