Obadiah 1:8-16

8Will I not on that dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “1DestroyH6 wiseH2450 menH2450 from EdomH112 And understandingH8394 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215?9Then your 2mightyH1368 menH1368 will be dismayedH2865, O 3TemanH8487, So that everyoneH376 may be 4cutH3772 offH3772 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215 by slaughterH6993.

10“BecauseH4480 of 5violenceH2555 to your brotherH251 JacobH3290, 6You will be coveredH3680 with shameH955, 7And you will be cutH3772 offH3772 foreverH5769.11On the dayH3117 that you 8stoodH5975 aloofH4480 H5048, On the dayH3117 that strangersH2114 carriedH7617 offH7617 his wealthH2428, And foreignersH5237 enteredH935 his gateH8179 And 9castH3032 lotsH1486 for JerusalemH3389-- 10You tooH1571 were as oneH259 of them.12 11Do not 12gloatH7200 over your brother’sH251 dayH3117, The dayH3117 of his misfortuneH5235. And 13do not rejoiceH8055 over the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 In the dayH3117 of their destructionH6; Yes, 14do not 15boastH1431 H6310 In the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.13Do not enterH935 the gateH8179 of My peopleH5971 In the 16dayH3117 of their disasterH343. YesH1571, you, do not 17gloatH7200 over their calamityH7463 In the dayH3117 of their disasterH343. And do not 18lootH7971 their wealthH2428 In the dayH3117 of their disasterH343.14Do not 19standH5975 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 20dayH3117 of the LordH3068 drawsH7138 nearH7138 on allH3605 the nationsH1471. 21As you have doneH6213, it will be doneH6213 to you. Your 22dealingsH1576 will returnH7725 on your own headH7218.16BecauseH3588 justH3512 as you 23drankH8354 on 24My holyH6944 mountainH2022, AllH3605 the nationsH1471 25will drinkH8354 continuallyH8548. They will drinkH8354 and 26swallowH3886 And becomeH1961 as if they had neverH3808 existedH1961.
