ગુજરાતીઓબાદ્યા ૧:૮
યહોવાહ કહે છે, તે દિવસે આખા અદોમમાંથી જ્ઞાની પુરુષોનો અને એસાવ પર્વત પરથી બુદ્ધિનો નાશ શું હું નહિ કરું?
हिन्दीओबद्याह १:८
यहोवा की यह वाणी है, क्या मैं उस समय एदोम में से बुद्धिमानों को, और एसाव के पहाड़ में से चतुराई को नाश न करूँगा? (यशा. 29:14, अय्यू. 5:12,13)

In context

6How Esau will be ransacked! How his hidden treasures are sought out!

7All the men of your alliance 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. Friends who eat your bread lay a snare under you. There is no understanding in him.”

8“Won’t I in that day”, says the LORD, “destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mountain of Esau?

9Your mighty men, Teman, will be dismayed, to the end that everyone may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.

10For the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you, and you will be cut off forever.
