But though thou wentest up as high as the Eagle, and madest thy nest above among the stars: yet would I pluck thee down from thence.

If the thieves and robbers came to thee by night, thou taking thy rest: should they not steal, till they had enough? If the grape gatherers came upon thee, would they not leave thee some grapes?

Yea, the men that were sworn unto thee, shall drive thee out of the borders of thine own land. They that be now at one with thee, shall deceive thee, and overcome thee: Even they that eat thy bread, shall betray thee, before thou perceive it.

Thy giants, O Teman, shall be afraid, for through the slaughter they shall be all overthrown upon the mount of Esau.

Shame shall come upon thee, for the malice that thou showedest to thy brother Jacob. Yea, for evermore shalt thou perish,

Thou shalt no more see the day of thy brother; thou shalt no more behold the time of his captivity; thou shalt no more rejoice over the children of Judah, in the day of their destruction; thou shalt triumph no more in the time of their trouble.
