Obadiah 5-7

New Living Translation

⁵ “If thieves came at night and robbed you
    (what a disaster awaits you!),
    they would not take everything.
Those who harvest grapes
    always leave a few for the poor.
    But your enemies will wipe you out completely!
⁶ Every nook and cranny of Edom^[a]
    will be searched and looted.
    Every treasure will be found and taken.

⁷ “All your allies will turn against you.
    They will help to chase you from your land.
They will promise you peace
    while plotting to deceive and destroy you.
Your trusted friends will set traps for you,
    and you won’t even know about it.
