Obadiah 4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ Even though you soar like an eagle
    and your nest is set among the stars,
from there I will bring you down
    says the Lord.
⁵ If thieves approached you,
    or robbers during the night,
you would not be destroyed,
    for wouldn’t they steal only what they wanted?
If grape-pickers were to come to you,
    wouldn’t they leave gleanings?
⁶ But note how they will ransack Esau
    and steal his hidden treasures.
