Obadiah 6-8
English Standard Version
6 (A)How Esau has been pillaged,
his treasures sought out!
7 All your allies have driven you to your border;
those at peace with you have deceived you;
they have prevailed against you;
(B)those who eat your bread[a] have set a trap beneath you—
(C)you have[b] no understanding.
8 (D)Will I not on that day, declares the Lord,
destroy the wise men out of Edom,
and understanding out of (E)Mount Esau?

New International Version
6 But how Esau will be ransacked,
his hidden treasures pillaged!
7 All your allies(A) will force you to the border;
your friends will deceive and overpower you;
those who eat your bread(B) will set a trap for you,[a]
but you will not detect it.
8 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
“will I not destroy(C) the wise men of Edom,
those of understanding in the mountains of Esau?
