In context

7Concerning Edom, this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Is there no longer wisdom in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom decayed?

8Turn and run! Lie low, O dwellers of Dedan, for I will bring disaster on Esau at the time I punish him.

9If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleanings? Were thieves to come in the night, would they not steal only what they wanted?

10But I will strip Esau bare; I will uncover his hiding places, and he will be unable to conceal himself. His descendants will be destroyed along with his relatives and neighbors, and he will be no more.

11Abandon your orphans; I will preserve their lives. Let your widows trust in Me.”
