Oba 01:01 ¶ The vision <02377> of Obadiah <05662>. Thus saith
<0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> concerning Edom <0123>;
We have heard <08085> (8804) a rumour <08052> from the LORD
<03068>, and an ambassador <06735> is sent <07971> (8795) among
the heathen <01471>, Arise <06965> (8798) ye, and let us rise up
<06965> (8799) against her in battle <04421>.
Oba 01:02 Behold, I have made <05414> (8804) thee small <06996>
among the heathen <01471>: thou art greatly <03966> despised
<0959> (8803).
Oba 01:03 The pride <02087> of thine heart <03820> hath
deceived <05377> (8689) thee, thou that dwellest <07931> (8802)
in the clefts <02288> of the rock <05553>, whose habitation
<03427> (8800) is high <04791>; that saith <0559> (8802) in his
heart <03820>, Who shall bring me down <03381> (8686) to the
ground <0776>?
Oba 01:04 Though thou exalt <01361> (8686) thyself as the eagle
<05404>, and though thou set <07760> (8800) thy nest <07064>
among the stars <03556>, thence will I bring thee down <03381>
(8686), saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Oba 01:05 If thieves <01590> came <0935> (8804) to thee, if
robbers <07703> (8802) by night <03915>, (how art thou cut off
<01820> (8738)!) would they not have stolen <01589> (8799) till
they had enough <01767>? if the grapegatherers <01219> (8802)
came <0935> (8804) to thee, would they not leave <07604> (8686)
some grapes <05955>?
Oba 01:06 How are the things of Esau <06215> searched out
<02664> (8738)! how are his hidden <04710> things sought up
<01158> (8738)!
Oba 01:07 All the men <0582> of thy confederacy <01285> have
brought <07971> (8765) thee even to the border <01366>: the men
<0582> that were at peace <07965> with thee have deceived
<05377> (8689) thee, and prevailed <03201> (8804) against thee;
they that eat thy bread <03899> have laid <07760> (8799) a wound
<04204> under thee: there is none understanding <08394> in him.
Oba 01:08 Shall I not in that day <03117>, saith <05002> (8803)
the LORD <03068>, even destroy <06> (8689) the wise <02450> men
out of Edom <0123>, and understanding <08394> out of the mount
<02022> of Esau <06215>?
Oba 01:09 And thy mighty <01368> men, O Teman <08487>, shall be
dismayed <02865> (8804), to the end that every one <0376> of the
mount <02022> of Esau <06215> may be cut off <03772> (8735) by
slaughter <06993>.
Oba 01:10 ¶ For thy violence <02555> against thy brother <0251>
Jacob <03290> shame <0955> shall cover <03680> (8762) thee, and
thou shalt be cut off <03772> (8738) for ever <05769>.
Oba 01:11 In the day <03117> that thou stoodest <05975> (8800)
on the other side, in the day <03117> that the strangers <02114>
(8801) carried away captive <07617> (8800) his forces <02428>,
and foreigners <05237> entered <0935> (8804) into his gates
<08179>, and cast <03032> (8804) lots <01486> upon Jerusalem
<03389>, even thou wast as one <0259> of them.
Oba 01:12 But thou shouldest not have looked <07200> (8799) on
the day <03117> of thy brother <0251> in the day <03117> that he
became a stranger <05235>; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced
<08055> (8799) over the children <01121> of Judah <03063> in the
day <03117> of their destruction <06> (8800); neither shouldest
thou have spoken <06310> proudly <01431> (8686) in the day
<03117> of distress <06869>.
Oba 01:13 Thou shouldest not have entered <0935> (8799) into
the gate <08179> of my people <05971> in the day <03117> of
their calamity <0343>; yea, thou shouldest not have looked
<07200> (8799) on their affliction <07451> in the day <03117> of
their calamity <0343>, nor have laid <07971> (8799) hands on
their substance <02428> in the day <03117> of their calamity
<0343>;
Oba 01:14 Neither shouldest thou have stood <05975> (8799) in
the crossway <06563>, to cut off <03772> (8687) those of his
that did escape <06412>; neither shouldest thou have delivered
up <05462> (8686) those of his that did remain <08300> in the
day <03117> of distress <06869>.
Oba 01:15 For the day <03117> of the LORD <03068> is near
<07138> upon all the heathen <01471>: as thou hast done <06213>
(8804), it shall be done <06213> (8735) unto thee: thy reward
<01576> shall return <07725> (8799) upon thine own head <07218>.
Oba 01:16 For as ye have drunk <08354> (8804) upon my holy
<06944> mountain <02022>, so shall all the heathen <01471> drink
<08354> (8799) continually <08548>, yea, they shall drink
<08354> (8804), and they shall swallow down <03886> (8804), and
they shall be as though they had not <03808> been.
Oba 01:17 ¶ But upon mount <02022> Zion <06726> shall be
deliverance <06413>, and there shall be holiness <06944>; and
the house <01004> of Jacob <03290> shall possess <03423> (8804)
their possessions <04180>.
Oba 01:18 And the house <01004> of Jacob <03290> shall be a
fire <0784>, and the house <01004> of Joseph <03130> a flame
<03852>, and the house <01004> of Esau <06215> for stubble
<07179>, and they shall kindle <01814> (8804) in them, and
devour <0398> (8804) them; and there shall not be any remaining
<08300> of the house <01004> of Esau <06215>; for the LORD
<03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765) it.
Oba 01:19 And they of the south <05045> shall possess <03423>
(8804) the mount <02022> of Esau <06215>; and they of the plain
<08219> the Philistines <06430>: and they shall possess <03423>
(8804) the fields <07704> of Ephraim <0669>, and the fields
<07704> of Samaria <08111>: and Benjamin <01144> shall possess
Gilead <01568>.
Oba 01:20 And the captivity <01546> of this host <02426> of the
children <01121> of Israel <03478> shall possess that of the
Canaanites <03669>, even unto Zarephath <06886>; and the
captivity <01546> of Jerusalem <03389>, which is in Sepharad
<05614>, shall possess <03423> (8799) the cities <05892> of the
south <05045>.
Oba 01:21 And saviours <03467> (8688) shall come up <05927>
(8804) on mount <02022> Zion <06726> to judge <08199> (8800) the
mount <02022> of Esau <06215>; and the kingdom <04410> shall be
the LORD’S <03068>.
