Revised Version 1895
Obadiah 1:2-9
2BeholdH2009, I have madeH5414 thee smallH6996 among the nationsH1471: thou art greatlyH3966 despisedH959.
3The prideH2087 of thine heartH3820 hath deceived thee, O thou that dwellest in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, whoseH4310 habitation is highH4791; that saith in his heartH3820, Who shall bringH3381 meH3381 downH3381 to the groundH776?
4ThoughH518 thou mount on highH1361 as the eagleH5404, and thoughH518 thy nestH7064 be setH7760 among the starsH3556, I will bringH3381 thee downH3381 from thence, saith the LORDH3068.
5IfH518 thievesH1590 cameH935 to thee, ifH518 robbersH7703 by nightH3915, (howH349 art thou cutH1820 offH1820!) would they notH3808 stealH1589 till they had enoughH1767? ifH518 grapegatherers cameH935 to thee, would they notH3808 leaveH7604 someH5955 gleaningH5955 grapes?
6HowH349 are the things of EsauH6215 searchedH2664 out! howH349 are his hiddenH4710 treasuresH4710 sought up!
7AllH3605 the menH376 of thy confederacy have broughtH7760 thee on thy wayH3605, evenH5704 to the borderH1366: the menH376 that were at peaceH7965 with thee have deceived thee, and prevailedH3201 againstH376 thee; they that eat thy breadH3899 layH7760 a snare underH8478 thee: there is noneH369 understandingH8394 in him.
8Shall I notH3808 in that dayH3117, saith the LORDH3068, destroyH6 the wiseH2450 menH2450 outH6 of EdomH123, and understandingH8394 outH6 of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215?
9And thy mightyH1368 menH376, O TemanH8487, shall be dismayedH2865, to the end that everyH376 one may be cutH3772 offH3772 from the mountH2022 of EsauH6215 by slaughterH6993.
