If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night (how art thou cut off!), would they not steal `only' till they had enough? if grape-gatherers came to thee, would they not leave some gleaning grapes?

Amplified® Bible

Contemporary English Version
If thieves break in at night, they steal only what they want. And people who harvest grapes always leave some unpicked. But, Edom, you are doomed!

Darby English Version

if robbers in the night—
Oh, what a disaster awaits you—

New King James Version
“ If thieves had come to you,
If robbers by night—
Oh, how you will be cut off!—
Would they not have stolen till they had enough?
If grape-gatherers had come to you,
Would they not have left some gleanings?

N.A.S.B. in E-Prime
"If thieves came to you, If robbers by night-- O how you will receive ruin!-- Would they not steal only until they had enough? If grape gatherers came to you, Would they not leave some gleanings?

Revised Standard Version
If thieves came to you, if plunderers by night--how you have been destroyed! --would they not steal only enough for themselves? If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave gleanings?

If thieves have come in to thee, If spoilers of the night, How hast thou been cut off! Do they not steal their sufficiency? If gatherers have come in to thee, Do they not leave gleanings?
