Obadiah 1:7-15

7AllH3605 the 1peopleH376 2alliedH1285 with you Will sendH7971 you to the borderH1366, And the peopleH376 at peaceH7965 with you Will deceiveH5378 you and overpowerH3201 you. They who eat your 3breadH3899 Will setH7760 an ambushH4204 for you. (ThereH369 isH369 4noH369 understandingH8394 5in him.)8Will I not on that dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “6EliminateH6 wiseH2450 menH2450 from EdomH112, And understandingH8394 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215?9Then your 7warriorsH1368 will be filledH2865 withH2865 terrorH2865, 8TemanH8487, SoH4616 thatH4616 everyoneH376 will be 9eliminatedH3772 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215 by murderH6993.

10“BecauseH4480 of 10violenceH2555 to your brotherH251 JacobH3290, ShameH955 will coverH3680 you, 11And you will be eliminatedH3772 foreverH5769.11On the dayH3117 that you 12stoodH5975 aloofH4480H5048, On the dayH3117 that strangersH2114 carriedH7617 offH7617 his wealthH2428, And foreignersH5237 enteredH935 his gateH8179 And 13castH3032 lotsH1486 for JerusalemH3389-- 14You tooH1571 were as oneH259 of them.1215Do not 16gloatH7200 over your brother’sH251 dayH3117, The dayH3117 of his misfortuneH5235. And 17do not rejoiceH8055 over the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 On the dayH3117 of their destructionH6; Yes, 18do not 19boastH1431H6310 On the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.13Do not enterH935 the gateH8179 of My peopleH5971 On the 20dayH3117 of their disasterH343. You indeedH1571, do not 21gloatH7200 over their catastropheH7463 On the dayH3117 of their disasterH343. And do not 22layH7971 a hand on their wealthH2428 On the dayH3117 of their disasterH343.14Do not 23standH5975 at the crossroadsH6563 To eliminateH3772 their survivorsH6412; And do not handH5462 overH5462 their refugeesH8300 On the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.

15“For the 24dayH3117 of the LordH3068 is nearH7138 for allH3605 the nationsH1471. 25JustH3512 asH3512 you have doneH6213, it will be doneH6213 to you. Your 26dealingsH1576 will returnH7725 on your own headH7218.
