9If grape pickers came to you,

would they not leave a few grapes?

If thieves came during the night,

would they not steal only as much as they wanted?

10But I will strip Esau bare;

I will uncover his hiding places,t

so that he cannot conceal himself.

His armed men are destroyed,

also his allies and neighbors,

so there is no oneu to say,
