- 8Will I not, in that day, says the Lord, take away the wise men out of Edom, and wisdom out of the mountain of Esau?
- 9And your men of war, O Teman, will be overcome with fear, so that every one of them may be cut off from the mountain of Esau.
- 10Because you were the cause of violent death and because of your cruel behaviour to your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame and will be cut off for ever.
- 11Because you were there watching when men from other lands took away his goods, and strange men came into his doors, and put the fate of Jerusalem to the decision of chance; you were like one of them.
