MLV(i)
2 Behold, I have made you small among the nations. You are greatly despised.
3 The pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high, who says in his heart, Who will bring me down to the ground? 4 Though you mount on high as the eagle and though your nest is set among the stars, I will bring you down from there, says Jehovah.
5 If thieves came to you, if robbers by night (how you are cut off!), they would not steal only till they had enough? If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes?
6 How are the things of Esau searched! How are his hidden treasures sought out! 7 All the men of your confederacy have brought you on your way, even to the border. The men who were at peace with you have deceived you and prevailed against you. Those who eat your bread lay a snare under you. There is no understanding in him.
8 Jehovah says, Shall I not in that day, destroy the wise men out of Edom and understanding out of the mountain of Esau? 9 And your mighty men, O Teman, will be dismayed, to the end that everyone may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.
