Obadiah 1:1 The vision2377 of Obadiah.5662 Thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD3069 concerning Edom;123 We have heard8085 a rumour8052 from the LORD,3068 and an ambassador6735 is sent7971 among the heathen,1471 Arise6965 ye, and let us rise up6965 against her in battle.44212 Behold, I have made5414 thee small6996 among the heathen:1471 thou art greatly3966 despised.959
Obadiah 1:3 The pride2087 of thine heart3820 hath deceived5377 thee, thou that dwellest7931 in the clefts2288 of the rock,5553 whose habitation3427is high;4791 that saith559 in his heart,3820 Who shall bring me down3381 to the ground?7764 Though thou exalt1361thyself as the eagle,5404 and though thou set7760 thy nest7064 among the stars,3556 thence will I bring thee down,3381 saith5002 the LORD.30685 If thieves1590 came935 to thee, if robbers7703 by night,3915 (how art thou cut off!)1820 would they not have stolen1589 till they had enough?1767 if the grapegatherers1219 came935 to thee, would they not leave7604some grapes?59556 How are thethings of Esau6215 searched out!2664how are his hidden4710 things sought up!11587 All the men582 of thy confederacy1285 have brought7971 thee even to the border:1366 the men582 that were at peace7965{Heb. the men of thy peace} with thee have deceived5377 thee, and prevailed3201 against{Or, of it} thee; theythateat thy bread3899{Heb. the men of thy bread} have laid7760 a wound4204 under thee: thereis none understanding8394 in him.
8 Shall I not in that day,3117 saith5002 the LORD,3068 even destroy6 the wise2450men out of Edom,123 and understanding8394 out of the mount2022 of Esau?62159 And thy mighty1368men, O Teman,8487 shall be dismayed,2865 to the end that every one376 of the mount2022 of Esau6215 may be cut off3772 by slaughter.6993
Obadiah 1:10 For thy violence2555 against thy brother251 Jacob3290 shame955 shall cover3680 thee, and thou shalt be cut off3772 for ever.576911 In the day3117 that thou stoodest5975 on the other side, in the day3117 that the strangers2114 carried away captive7617{Or, carried away his substance} his forces,2428 and foreigners5237 entered935 into his gates,8179 and cast3032 lots1486 upon Jerusalem,3389 even thou wast as one259 of them.
12 But thou shouldest not have looked7200{Or, do not behold, etc.} on the day3117 of thy brother251 in the day3117 that he became a stranger;5235 neither shouldest thou have rejoiced8055 over the children1121 of Judah3063 in the day3117 of their destruction;6 neither shouldest thou have spoken6310 proudly1431{Heb. magnified thy mouth} in the day3117 of distress.686913 Thou shouldest not have entered935 into the gate8179 of my people5971 in the day3117 of their calamity;343 yea, thou shouldest not have looked7200 on their affliction7451 in the day3117 of their calamity,343 nor have laid7971hands on their substance2428{Or, forces} in the day3117 of their calamity;34314 Neither shouldest thou have stood5975 in the crossway,6563 to cut off3772 those of his that did escape;6412 neither shouldest thou have delivered up5462{Or, shut up} those of his that did remain8300 in the day3117 of distress.686915 For the day3117 of the LORD3068is near7138 upon all the heathen:1471 as thou hast done,6213 it shall be done6213 unto thee: thy reward1576 shall return7725 upon thine own head.721816 For as ye have drunk8354 upon my holy6944 mountain,2022so shall all the heathen1471 drink8354 continually,8548 yea, they shall drink,8354 and they shall swallow down,3886{Or, sup up} and they shall be as though they had not3808 been.
Obadiah 1:17 But upon mount2022 Zion6726 shall be deliverance,6413{Or, they that escape} and there shall be holiness;6944{Or, it shall be holy} and the house1004 of Jacob3290 shall possess3423 their possessions.418018 And the house1004 of Jacob3290 shall be a fire,784 and the house1004 of Joseph3130 a flame,3852 and the house1004 of Esau6215 for stubble,7179 and they shall kindle1814 in them, and devour398 them; and there shall not be any remaining8300 of the house1004 of Esau;6215 for the LORD3068 hath spoken1696it.
Obadiah 1:19 And theyof the south5045 shall possess3423 the mount2022 of Esau;6215 and theyof the plain8219 the Philistines:6430 and they shall possess3423 the fields7704 of Ephraim,669 and the fields7704 of Samaria:8111 and Benjamin1144shallpossess Gilead.156820 And the captivity1546 of this host2426 of the children1121 of Israel3478shallpossess that of the Canaanites,3669even unto Zarephath;6886 and the captivity1546 of Jerusalem,3389 which is in Sepharad,5614{Or, shall possess that which is in Sepharad} shall possess3423 the cities5892 of the south.504521 And saviours3467 shall come up5927 on mount2022 Zion6726 to judge8199 the mount2022 of Esau;6215 and the kingdom4410 shall be the LORD'S.3068
