A Message About Edom

⁷Here is what the Lord says about Edom.

The Lord who rules over all says,

“Isn’t there wisdom in the town of Teman anymore?
    Can’t those who are wise give advice?
    Has their wisdom disappeared completely?
⁸Turn around and run away, you who live in Dedan.
    Hide in deep caves.
I will bring trouble on Esau’s family line.
    I will do this at the time I punish them.
