Obadiah 1:8 in Context — Obadiah 1

6 Como Esaú foi saqueado! Como seus tesouros foram tomados!

7 Todos os teus aliados te moveram até as fronteiras; os que têm acordo de paz contigo te enganaram, prevaleceram contra ti; [os que comem] do teu pão porão armadilha para ti, (nele não há entendimento).

8 Não será naquele dia,diz o SENHOR, que farei perecer os sábios de Edom, e o entendimento da montanha de Esaú?

9 E teus guerreiros, ó Temã, ficarão atemorizados; para que cada um da montanha de Esaú seja exterminado pela matança.

10 Por causa da violência feita a teu irmão Jacó, a vergonha te cobrirá; e serás exterminado para sempre.
