Obadiah 1:1-9

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>_.
Behold, I have made
<05414> (8804)
thee small
<06996>
among the heathen
<01471>_:
thou art greatly
<03966>
despised
<0959> (8803)_.
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>_?
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>_.
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>_?
{some...: or, gleanings?}
How are [the things] of Esau
<06215>
searched out
<02664> (8738)_!
[how] are his hidden
<04710>
things sought up
<01158> (8738)_!
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. {that were...: Heb. of thy peace} {they...: Heb. the men of thy bread} {in him: or, of it}
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>_?
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>_.
