1 H2377 The vision H5662 of Obadiah. H559 Thus says H136 the Lord H3069 God H123 concerning Edom; H8085 We have heard H8052 a rumor H3068 from the Lord, H6735 and a ambassador H7971 is sent H1471 among the heathen, H6965 Arise, H6965 and let us rise up H4421 against her in battle.

2 H5414 Behold, I have made H6996 you small H1471 among the heathen: H3966 you are greatly H959 despised.

3 H2087 The pride H3820 of your heart H5377 has deceived H7931 you, you that live H2288 in the clefts H5553 of the rock, H3427 whose habitation H4791 is high; H559 that says H3820 in his heart, H3381 Who shall bring me down H776 to the ground?

4 H1361 Though you exalt H5404 yourself as the eagle, H7760 and though you set H7064 your nest H3556 among the stars, H3381 there will I bring you down, H5002 says H3068 the Lord.

5 H1590 If thieves H935 came H7703 to you, if robbers H3915 by night, H1820 (how are you cut off!) H1589 would they not have stolen H1767 until they had enough? H1219 if the grapegatherers H935 came H7604 to you, would they not leave H5955 some grapes?

6 H6215 How are the things of Esau H2664 searched out! H4710 how are his hidden H1158 things sought up!

7 H582 All the men H1285 of your confederacy H7971 have brought H1366 you even to the border: H582 the men H7965 that were at peace H5377 with you have deceived H3201 you, and prevailed H3899 against you; they that eat your bread H7760 have laid H4204 a wound H8394 under you: there is none understanding in him.

8 H3117 Shall I not in that day, H5002 says H3068 the Lord, H6 even destroy H2450 the wise H123 men out of Edom, H8394 and understanding H2022 out of the mountain H6215 of Esau?

9 H1368 And your mighty H8487 men, O Teman, H2865 shall be dismayed, H376 to the end that every one H2022 of the mountain H6215 of Esau H3772 may be cut off H6993 by slaughter.

10 H2555 For your violence H251 against your brother H3290 Jacob H955 shame H3680 shall cover H3772 you, and you shall be cut off H5769 for ever.

11 H3117 In the day H5975 that you stood H3117 on the other side, in the day H2114 that the strangers H7617 carried away captive H2428 his forces, H5237 and foreigners H935 entered H8179 into his gates, H3032 and cast H1486 lots H3389 upon Jerusalem, H259 even you were as one of them.

12 H7200 But you should not have looked H3117 on the day H251 of your brother H3117 in the day H5235 that he became a stranger; H8055 neither should you have rejoiced H1121 over the sons H3063 of Judah H3117 in the day H6 of their destruction; H6310 neither should you have spoken H1431 proudly H3117 in the day H6869 of distress.

13 H935 You should not have entered H8179 into the gate H5971 of my people H3117 in the day H343 of their calamity; H7200 Yes, you should not have looked H7451 on their affliction H3117 in the day H343 of their calamity, H7971 nor have laid H2428 hands on their substance H3117 in the day H343 of their calamity;

14 H5975 Neither should you have stood H6563 in the crossroad, H3772 to cut off H6412 those of his that did escape; H5462 neither should you have delivered up H8300 those of his that did remain H3117 in the day H6869 of distress.

15 H3117 For the day H3068 of the Lord H7138 is near H1471 upon all the heathen: H6213 as you have done, H6213 it shall be done H1576 unto you: your reward H7725 shall return H7218 upon your own head.

16 H8354 For as you have drunk H6944 upon my holy H2022 mountain, H1471 so shall all the heathen H8354 drink H8548 continually, H8354 Yes, they shall drink, H3886 and they shall swallow down, H3808 and they shall be as though they had not been.

17 H2022 But upon mountain H6726 Zion H6413 shall be deliverance, H6944 and there shall be holiness; H1004 and the house H3290 of Jacob H3423 shall possess H4180 their possessions.

18 H1004 And the house H3290 of Jacob H784 shall be a fire, H1004 and the house H3130 of Joseph H3852 a flame, H1004 and the house H6215 of Esau H7179 for stubble, H1814 and they shall kindle H398 in them, and devour H8300 them; and there shall not be any remaining H1004 of the house H6215 of Esau; H3068 for the Lord H1696 has spoken it.

19 H5045 And they of the south H3423 shall possess H2022 the mountain H6215 of Esau; H8219 and they of the plain H6430 the Philistines: H3423 and they shall possess H7704 the fields H669 of Ephraim, H7704 and the fields H8111 of Samaria: H1144 and Benjamin H1568 shall possess Gilead.

20 H1546 And the captivity H2426 of this army H1121 of the sons H3478 of Israel H3669 shall possess that of the Canaanites, H6886 even unto Zarephath; H1546 and the captivity H3389 of Jerusalem, H5614 which is in Sepharad, H3423 shall possess H5892 the cities H5045 of the south.

21 H3467 And saviors H5927 shall come up H2022 on mountain H6726 Zion H8199 to judge H2022 the mountain H6215 of Esau; H4410 and the kingdom H3068 shall be the Lord's.
