Obadiah 1
1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord Jehovah concerning Edom: We have heard a report from Jehovah, and an ambassador is sent among the nations. Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.
Ìran ti Obadiah. Èyí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí nípa Edomu. Àwa ti gbọ́ ohùn kan láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá, a sì ti rán ikọ̀ kan sí gbogbo kèfèrí láti sọ pé, “Ẹ dìde, ẹ jẹ́ kí a dìde ogun sí i.”
2 Behold, I have made thee small among the nations; thou art greatly despised.
“Kíyèsi i, Èmi yóò sọ ọ́ di kékeré láàrín àwọn kèfèrí; ìwọ yóò sì di gígàn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀.
3 The pride of thy heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; — he that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
Ìgbéraga àyà rẹ ti tàn ọ́ jẹ, ìwọ tí ń gbé inú pálapàla àpáta, tí o sì kọ́ ibùgbé rẹ sí ibi gíga, ìwọ wí nínú ọkàn rẹ pé, ‘Ta ni yóò mú mi sọ̀kalẹ̀?’
4 Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith Jehovah.
Bí ìwọ tilẹ̀ gbé ara rẹ ga bí ẹyẹ idì, bí ìwọ tilẹ̀ tẹ́ ìtẹ́ rẹ sí àárín àwọn ìràwọ̀, láti ibẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti sọ̀ ọ kalẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
5 If thieves had come to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not have stolen [till] they had had enough? If grape-gatherers had come to thee, would they not have left some gleanings?
“Bí àwọn olè tọ̀ ọ́ wá, bí àwọn ọlọ́ṣà ní òru, Háà! Irú ìparun wo ló dúró dè ọ́, wọn kò ha jalè tó bí wọ́n ti fẹ́? Bí àwọn tí ń ká èso àjàrà tọ̀ ọ́ wá, wọn kò ha ni fi èso àjàrà díẹ̀ sílẹ̀?
6 How is Esau searched! his hidden things sought out!
Báwo ni a ṣe ṣe àwárí nǹkan Esau, tí a sì wá ohun ìní ìkọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ jáde.
7 All the men of thy confederacy have pushed thee to the border; the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, they have prevailed against thee; [they that eat] thy bread have laid a snare under thee. There is no understanding in him.
Gbogbo àwọn ẹni ìmùlẹ̀ rẹ ti mú ọ dé ìpẹ̀kun ilẹ̀ rẹ, àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ ti tàn ọ́ jẹ, wọ́n sì ti borí rẹ; àwọn tó jẹ oúnjẹ rẹ dẹ pàkúté dè ọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò ní ní òye rẹ̀.”
8 Shall I not in that day, saith Jehovah, destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
Olúwa wí pé, “Ní ọjọ́ náà, Èmi kì yóò ha pa àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n Edomu run, àti àwọn amòye run kúrò ní òkè Esau?
9 And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one may be cut off from the mount of Esau by slaughter.
A ó ṣe ẹ̀rù ba àwọn jagunjagun rẹ, ìwọ Temani, gbogbo àwọn tó wà ní orí òkè Esau ní a ó gé kúrò nínú ìpànìyàn náà.
10 Because of violence against thy brother Jacob, shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
Nítorí ìwà ipá sí Jakọbu arákùnrin rẹ, ìtìjú yóò bò ọ, a ó sì pa ọ run títí láé.
11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away captive his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.
Ní ọjọ́ tí ìwọ dúró ní apá kan, ní ọjọ́ tí àlejò kó ogún rẹ lọ, tí àwọn àjèjì sì wọ ibodè rẹ, tí wọ́n sì sẹ́ kèké lórí Jerusalẹmu, ìwọ náà wà bí ọ̀kan nínú wọn.
12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day of his disaster; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; nor have opened wide thy mouth in the day of distress.
Ìwọ kì bá tí fi ojú kéré arákùnrin rẹ, ní àkókò ìbànújẹ́ rẹ̀ ìwọ kì bá tí yọ̀ lórí àwọn ọmọ Juda, ní ọjọ́ ìparun wọn ìwọ kì bá tí gbéraga púpọ̀ ní ọjọ́ wàhálà wọn.
13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity, nor have looked, even thou, on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither shouldest thou have laid [hands] on their substance in the day of their calamity;
Ìwọ kì bá tí wọ inú ibodè àwọn ènìyàn mi lọ, ní ọjọ́ àjálù wọn. Ìwọ kì bá tí fojú kó wọn mọ́lẹ̀ nínú ìdààmú wọn, ní ọjọ́ àjálù wọn. Ìwọ kì bá tí jí ẹrù wọn kó, ní ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú wọn.
14 and thou shouldest not have stood on the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape, nor have delivered up those remaining of him in the day of distress.
Ìwọ kì bá tí dúró ní ìkóríta ọ̀nà láti ké àwọn tirẹ̀ tó ti sálà kúrò. Ìwọ kì bá tí fa àwọn tó ṣẹ́kù nínú wọn lélẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ wàhálà wọn.
15 For the day of Jehovah is near upon all the nations: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy recompence shall return upon thine own head.
“Nítorí ọjọ́ Olúwa súnmọ́ etílé lórí gbogbo àwọn kèfèrí. Bí ìwọ ti ṣe, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ó ṣe sí ìwọ náà; ẹ̀san rẹ yóò sì yípadà sí orí ara rẹ.
16 For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the nations drink continually; yea, they shall drink, and shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ̀ ṣe mu lórí òkè mímọ́ mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo kèfèrí yóò máa mu títí; wọn yóò mu ún ní àmutẹ́rùn wọn yóò sì wà bí ẹni pé wọn kò mu ún rí.
17 But upon mount Zion shall there be deliverance, and it shall be holy; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
Ṣùgbọ́n ìgbàlà yóò wà lórí òkè Sioni, wọn yóò sì jẹ́ mímọ́, àti ilé Jakọbu yóò sì ní ìní wọn.
18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble; and they shall kindle in them and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau: for Jehovah hath spoken [it].
Ilé Jakọbu yóò sì jẹ́ iná àti ilé Josẹfu ọwọ́ iná ilé Esau yóò jẹ àgékù koríko wọn yóò fi iná sí i, wọn yóò jo run. Kì yóò sí ẹni tí yóò kù ní ilé Esau.” Nítorí Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀.
19 And [they of] the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the lowland the Philistines; yea, they shall possess the field of Ephraim and the field of Samaria; and Benjamin [shall possess] Gilead;
Àwọn ará gúúsù yóò ni òkè Esau, àwọn ará ẹsẹ̀ òkè yóò ni ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Filistini ní ìní. Wọn yóò sì ni oko Efraimu àti Samaria; Benjamini yóò ní Gileadi ní ìní.
20 and the captives of this host of the children of Israel [shall possess] what belonged to the Canaanites, unto Zarephath; and the captives of Jerusalem, who [were] in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the south.
Àwọn ìgbèkùn Israẹli tí ó wà ní Kenaani yóò ni ilẹ̀ títí dé Sarefati; àwọn ìgbèkùn láti Jerusalẹmu tí ó wà ní Sefaredi yóò ni àwọn ìlú gúúsù ní ìní.
21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion, to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be Jehovah's.
Àwọn tó ń gba ni là yóò sì gòkè Sioni wá láti jẹ ọba lé orí àwọn òkè Esau. Ìjọba náà yóò sì jẹ́ ti Olúwa.
