< Obdias 1 >

1 The vision of Obdias. Thus says the Lord God to Idumea; I have heard a report from the Lord, and he has sent forth a message to the nations.
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!
2 Arise you, and let us rise up against her to war.
我使你—以东在列国中为最小的, 被人大大藐视。
3 Behold, I have made you small amongst the Gentiles: you are greatly dishonoured. The pride of your heart has elated you, dwelling [as you do] in the holes of the rocks, [as one that] exalts his habitation, saying in his heart, Who will bring me down to the ground?
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?
4 If you should mount up as the eagle, and if you should make your nest amongst the stars, thence will I bring you down, says the Lord.
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。
5 If thieves came in to you, or robbers by night, where would you have been cast away? would they not have stolen [just] enough for themselves? and if grape gatherers went in to you, would they not leave a gleaning?
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?
6 How has Esau been searched out, and [how] have his hidden things been detected?
以扫的隐密处何竟被搜寻? 他隐藏的宝物何竟被查出?
7 They sent you to your coasts: all the men of your covenant have withstood you; your allies have prevailed against you, they have set snares under you: they have no understanding.
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。
8 In that day, says the Lord, I will destroy the wise men out of Idumea, and understanding out of the mount of Esau.
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?
9 And your warriors from Thaeman shall be dismayed, to the end that man may be cut off from the mount of Esau.
提幔哪, 你的勇士必惊惶, 甚至以扫山的人都被杀戮剪除。
10 Because of the slaughter and the sin [committed against] your brother Jacob, shame shall cover you, and you shall be cut off for ever.
因你向兄弟雅各行强暴, 羞愧必遮盖你, 你也必永远断绝。
11 From the day that you stood in opposition [to him], in the days when foreigners were taking captive his forces, and strangers entered into his gates, and cast lots on Jerusalem, you also was as one of them.
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。
12 And you should not have looked on the day of your brother in the day of strangers; nor should you have rejoiced against the children of Juda in the day of their destruction; neither should you have boasted in the day of [their] affliction.
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。
13 Neither should you have gone into the gates of the people in the day of their troubles; nor yet should you have looked upon their gathering in the day of their destruction, nor should you have attacked their host in the day of their perishing.
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;
14 Neither should you have stood at the opening of their passages, to destroy utterly those of them that were escaping; neither should you have shut up his fugitives in the day of affliction.
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。
15 For the day of the Lord is near upon all the Gentiles: as you have done, so shall it be [done] to you: your recompense shall be returned on your [own] head.
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。
16 For as you have drunk upon my holy mountain, [so] shall all the nations drink wine; they shall drink, and go down, and be as if they were not.
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。
17 But on mount Sion there shall be deliverance, and there shall be a sanctuary; and the house of Jacob shall take for an inheritance those that took them for an inheritance.
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。
18 And the house of Jacob shall be fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau [shall be] for stubble; and [Israel] shall flame forth against them, and shall devour them, and there shall not be a corn-field [left] to the house of Esau; because the Lord has spoken.
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。
19 And they [that dwell] in the south shall inherit the mount of Esau, and they in the plain the Philistines: and they shall inherit the mount of Ephraim, and the plain of Samaria, and Benjamin, and the land of Galaad.
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。
20 And this [shall be] the domain of the captivity of the children of Israel, the land of the Chananites as far as Sarepta; and the captives of Jerusalem [shall inherit] as far as Ephratha; they shall inherit the cities of the south.
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。
21 And they that escape shall come up from mount Sion, to take vengeance on the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
必有拯救者上到锡安山,审判以扫山; 国度就归耶和华了。
