They who eat your 8breadH3899 Will setH7760 an ambushH4204 for you. (ThereH369 is 9noH369 understandingH8394 10in him.)8Will I not on that dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “11DestroyH6 wiseH2450 menH2450 from EdomH112 And understandingH8394 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215?9Then your 12mightyH1368 menH1368 will be dismayedH2865, O 13TemanH8487, So that everyoneH376 may be 14cutH3772 offH3772 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215 by slaughterH6993.
