俄巴底亚书 1
1 俄巴底亚得了耶和华的默示。 论以东说： 我从耶和华那里听见信息， 并有使者被差往列国去， 说：起来吧， 一同起来与以东争战！
The vision of Obadiah; what the Lord said about Edom: We have heard a report from the Lord, a messenger has been sent among the nations; Rise up, let us rise against Edom in battle!
2 我使你—以东在列国中为最小的， 被人大大藐视。
I will make you small among the nations, and despised by all!
3 住在山穴中、居所在高处的啊， 你因狂傲自欺， 心里说：谁能将我拉下地去呢？
Your proud heart has misled you, you who live in the clefts of the rock, you who build on high your dwelling. You say to yourselves, “Who can bring me down to earth?”
4 你虽如大鹰高飞， 在星宿之间搭窝， 我必从那里拉下你来。 这是耶和华说的。
Though you build high as the eagle, though between the stars you set your nest, from there will I bring you down, says the Lord.
5 盗贼若来在你那里， 或强盗夜间而来— 你何竟被剪除— 岂不偷窃直到够了呢？ 摘葡萄的若来到你那里， 岂不剩下些葡萄呢？
If thieves had come to you, marauders by night would they not have stolen only as much as they needed? If grape-gatherers had come to you would they not have left some gleanings?
6 以扫的隐密处何竟被搜寻？ 他隐藏的宝物何竟被查出？
Descendents of Esau, all your treasures are looted.
7 与你结盟的都送你上路，直到交界； 与你和好的欺骗你，且胜过你； 与你一同吃饭的设下网罗陷害你； 在你心里毫无聪明。
To your border they have driven you, all your allies have betrayed you. Your avowed friends have overpowered you, they have set a trap for you. Where is your wisdom now?
8 耶和华说：到那日， 我岂不从以东除灭智慧人？ 从以扫山除灭聪明人？
The Lord says: On that day, I will destroy the wise of Edom, drive wisdom out of Mount Esau.
9 提幔哪， 你的勇士必惊惶， 甚至以扫山的人都被杀戮剪除。
Your warriors will be filled with terror, Teman, none will be left alive on Mount Esau.
10 因你向兄弟雅各行强暴， 羞愧必遮盖你， 你也必永远断绝。
Because of the violence done to your relatives, the people of Jacob, shame covers you, you are cut off forever.
11 当外人掳掠雅各的财物， 外邦人进入他的城门， 为耶路撒冷拈阄的日子， 你竟站在一旁，像与他们同伙。
In the day when you stood aloof, in the day when strangers carried away their wealth, and strangers entered into their gates, and over Jerusalem cast lots, you were as one of those strangers.
12 你兄弟遭难的日子， 你不当瞪眼看着； 犹大人被灭的日子， 你不当因此欢乐； 他们遭难的日子， 你不当说狂傲的话。
You should not have gloated over your relatives, in the day of their misfortune. You should not have exulted over the land of Judah in the day of their destruction. You should not have laughed loudly at their distress.
13 我民遭灾的日子， 你不当进他们的城门； 他们遭灾的日子， 你不当瞪眼看着他们受苦； 他们遭灾的日子， 你不当伸手抢他们的财物；
You should not have entered in at the gate of my people in the day of their disaster. You should not have gloated over their calamity, in the day of their disaster, nor stretched out your hand after their wealth in the day of their disaster,
14 你不当站在岔路口剪除他们中间逃脱的； 他们遭难的日子， 你不当将他们剩下的人交付仇敌。
nor stood at the crossroads to cut down their fugitives, nor should you have betrayed their refugees in the day of distress.
15 耶和华降罚的日子临近万国。 你怎样行，他也必照样向你行； 你的报应必归到你头上。
Near at hand is the Lord’s day for all the nations. As you have done so will it be done to you. Your deeds will come back on your own head.
16 你们犹大人在我圣山怎样喝了苦杯， 万国也必照样常常地喝； 且喝且咽，他们就归于无有。
As you have drunk upon my holy mountain, so all the nations will drink in turn; They will drink deep and be as though they had not been.
17 在锡安山必有逃脱的人， 那山也必成圣； 雅各家必得原有的产业。
But on Mount Zion some will escape, it will be again holy, and those of the house of Jacob will again enter into their possessions.
18 雅各家必成为大火； 约瑟家必为火焰； 以扫家必如碎秸； 火必将他烧着吞灭。 以扫家必无余剩的。 这是耶和华说的。
For the house of Jacob will be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, but the house of Esau will become stubble. They will kindle and devour it. Not even one of the house of Esau will escape, for the Lord has spoken.
19 南地的人必得以扫山； 高原的人必得非利士地， 也得以法莲地和撒马利亚地； 便雅悯人必得基列。
They will possess the Negeb and Mount Esau, and the Shephelah of the Philistines. They will possess the territory of Ephraim and Samaria, and Benjamin will possess Gilead.
20 在迦南人中被掳的以色列众人 必得地直到撒勒法； 在西法拉中被掳的耶路撒冷人 必得南地的城邑。
The exiles of Israel will possess the land of the Canaanites as far as Zarephath. The captives of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad will possess the cities of the Negreb.
21 必有拯救者上到锡安山，审判以扫山； 国度就归耶和华了。
The rescued will come up on Mount Zion to rule Mount Esau, and the kingdom will belong to the Lord.
