Obadiah 1:10-21

10“BecauseH4480 of 1violenceH2555 to your brotherH251 JacobH3290, 2You will be coveredH3680 with shameH955, 3And you will be cutH3772 offH3772 foreverH5769.11On the dayH3117 that you 4stoodH5975 aloofH4480H5048, On the dayH3117 that strangersH2114 carriedH7617 offH7617 his wealthH2428, And foreignersH5237 enteredH935 his gateH8179 And 5castH3032 lotsH1486 for JerusalemH3389-- 6You tooH1571 were as oneH259 of them.127Do not 8gloatH7200 over your brother’sH251 dayH3117, The dayH3117 of his misfortuneH5235. And 9do not rejoiceH8055 over the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 In the dayH3117 of their destructionH6; Yes, 10do not 11boastH1431H6310 In the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.13Do not enterH935 the gateH8179 of My peopleH5971 In the 12dayH3117 of their disasterH343. YesH1571, you, do not 13gloatH7200 over their calamityH7463 In the dayH3117 of their disasterH343. And do not 14lootH7971 their wealthH2428 In the dayH3117 of their disasterH343.14Do not 15standH5975 at the forkH6563 of the roadH6563 To cutH3772 downH3772 their fugitivesH6412; And do not imprisonH5462 their survivorsH8300 In the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.

15“For the 16dayH3117 of the LordH3068 drawsH7138 nearH7138 on allH3605 the nationsH1471. 17As you have doneH6213, it will be doneH6213 to you. Your 18dealingsH1576 will returnH7725 on your own headH7218.16BecauseH3588 justH3512 as you 19drankH8354 on 20My holyH6944 mountainH2022, AllH3605 the nationsH1471 21will drinkH8354 continuallyH8548. They will drinkH8354 and 22swallowH3886 And becomeH1961 as if they had neverH3808 existedH1961.17But on MountH2022 23ZionH6726 there will be those whoH6413 escapeH6413, And it will be holyH6944. And the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 will 24possessH3423 their possessionsH4180.18Then the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 will be a 25fireH784 And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 a flameH3852; But the houseH1004 of EsauH6215 will be as stubbleH7179. And they will setH1814 26them on fireH1814 and consumeH398 27them, So that there will be 28noH3808 survivorH8300 of the houseH1004 of EsauH6215,” For the LordH3068 has spokenH1696.19Then those of the 29NegevH5045 will 30possessH3423 the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215, And those of the 31ShephelahH8219 the 32PhilistineH6430 plain; Also, 33possessH3423 the territoryH7704 of EphraimH669 and the territoryH7704 of SamariaH8111, And BenjaminH1144 will possess GileadH1568.20And the exilesH1546 of thisH2088 hostH2426 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, WhoH834 are among the CanaanitesH3669 as farH5704 as 34ZarephathH6886, And the exilesH1546 of JerusalemH3389 whoH834 are in SepharadH5614 Will possessH3423 the 35citiesH5892 of the NegevH5045.21The 36deliverersH3467 will ascendH5927 MountH2022 ZionH6726 To judgeH8199 the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215, And the 37kingdomH4410 will be the Lord’sH3068.
