In the thickets of Arabia you ^[b]must spend the night,
O caravans of ^(B)Dedanites.

⁷ Concerning ^(A)Edom.
Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“Is there no longer any ^(B)wisdom in ^(C)Teman?
Has good counsel been lost to the prudent?
Has their wisdom decayed?
⁸ “Flee away, turn back, dwell in the depths,
O inhabitants of ^(D)Dedan,
For I ^[a]will bring the ^(E)disaster of Esau upon him
At the time I ^[b]punish him.
