Obadiah 4-6
Modern English Version
4 Though you ascend high like the eagle,
and though you set your nest among the stars,
I will bring you down from there,
says the Lord.
5 If thieves came to you,
if robbers by night—
how you have been destroyed!—
would they not steal only what they want?
If grape gatherers come to you,
would they not leave gleanings?
6 How the things of Esau have been ransacked!
How his hidden treasures hunted out!

4 Though you soar like the eagle
and make your nest(A) among the stars,
from there I will bring you down,”(B)
declares the Lord.(C)
5 “If thieves came to you,
if robbers in the night—
oh, what a disaster awaits you!—
would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
If grape pickers came to you,
would they not leave a few grapes?(D)
6 But how Esau will be ransacked,
his hidden treasures pillaged!
