Obadiah 1:1-5

1The visionH2377 of ObadiahH5662.

ThusH3541 saith the Lord Jehovah concerning EdomH123: We have heardH8085 tidings from Jehovah, and an ambassador is sentH7971 among the nationsH1471, sayingH559, AriseH6965 ye, and let us riseH6965 up against her in battleH4421. 2Behold, I have madeH5414 thee smallH6996 among the nationsH1471: thou art greatly despisedH959. 3The prideH2087 of thy heartH3820 hath deceived thee, O thou that dwellest in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, whose habitation is highH4791; that saith in his heartH3820, Who shall bringH3381 me downH3381 to the groundH776? 4Though thou mount on highH1361 as the eagleH5404, and though thy nestH7064 be setH7760 among the starsH3556, I will bringH3381 thee downH3381 from thence, saith Jehovah.

5If thievesH1590 cameH935 to thee, if robbers by nightH3915 (howH349 art thou cut off!), would they not stealH1589 only till they had enough? if grape-gatherers cameH935 to thee, would they not leaveH7604 some gleaning grapes?
