If the grape gatherers came to thee, woulde they not leaue some grapes? 6 Howe are the thinges of Esau sought vp, and his treasures searched? 7 All the men of thy confederacie haue driuen thee to the borders, the men that were at peace with thee haue deceaued thee, and preuailed against thee, they that eate thy bread haue layd a wounde vnder thee, there is none vnderstanding in him. 8 Shal not I in that day, saide the lord, euen destroy the wise men out of Edom, and vnderstanding from the mount of Esau? 9 And thy strong men O Theman shalbe afraid: because euery one of the mout of Esau shalbe cut of by slaughter. 10 For thy crueltie against thy brother Iacob shame shall couer thee, and thou shalt be cut of for euer. 11 When thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the straungers caried away his substaunce, and straungers entred into his gates, and cast lottes vpon Hierusalem, euen thou wast as one of them. 12 But thou shouldest not haue beholden the day of thy brother in the day that he was made a straunger, neither shouldest thou haue reioyced ouer the childre of Iuda in the day of their destruction, thou shouldest not haue spoken proudly in the day of affliction: 13 Thou shouldest not haue entred into the gate of my people in the day of their destruction, neither shouldest thou haue once loked on their affliction in the day of their destructio, nor haue layd handes on their substaunce in the day of their destruction: 14 Neither shouldest thou haue stand in the crosse wayes to cut of them that shoulde escape, neither shouldest thou haue shutte vp the remnaunt thereof in the day of affliction.
