Obadiah 1
1 Obadiah's vision. This is what the Lord says about the land of Edom. We have heard from the Lord that a messenger was sent to tell the nations: Get ready! Let's go to war against Edom!
Zvakaratidzwa Obhadhia. Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha pamusoro peEdhomu: Takanzwa shoko rakabva kuna Jehovha richiti: Nhume yakatumwa kundudzi kuti indotaura ichiti, “Simukai, tiende tindorwa hondo naye.”
2 I will make you insignificant among the nations. You will be totally despised.
“Tarirai, ndichakudukupisai pakati pendudzi; muchamhurwa zvachose.
3 Your heart's pride has deceived you—you who live in a secure fortress of rock in the high mountains, saying to yourselves, “Who can ever bring us down?”
Kuzvikudza kwemwoyo yenyu kwakakunyengerai, iyemi mugere mumikaha yamatombo muchiita kwakakwirira misha yenyu, imi munoti mumwoyo yenyu, ‘Ndianiko angandiburutsira pasi?’
4 But even though you soar like an eagle, even though you make your nest among the stars, I will bring you down from there, declares the Lord.
Kunyange mukabhururuka segondo mukaruka dendere renyu pakati penyeredzi, kubva ipapo ndichakukandai pasi,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
5 You will be completely destroyed! If thieves came to you, if robbers came at night, wouldn't they steal only what they wanted? If those who harvest grapes came to you, wouldn't they leave some behind?
“Kana mbavha dzikauya kwamuri, kana makororo usiku, haiwa, muchaparadzwa zvakadiniko? Havazoba kusvikira pavanoda here? Dai vatanhi vamazambiringa vaiuya kwamuri, ko, havaizosiya mazambiringa mashoma here?
6 But how Esau will be plundered and their hidden treasures looted!
Asi Esau achasiyiwa seiko asina chinhu, pfuma yake yakavigwa ichatorwa!
7 All your allies will drive you out, past the borders of your land. Those who were at peace with you will deceive you, and conquer you. Those who ate with you have ambushed you. You don't understand a thing!
Vose vaiva nesungano newe vachakumanikidza kusvikira kumuganhu; shamwari dzako dzichakunyengera dzigokukunda; vanodya zvokudya zvako vachakuisira musungo, asi haungazvizivi.
8 On that day, declares the Lord, I will destroy the wise men of Edom—there will be no more wisdom in the mountains of Esau.
“Pazuva iro,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “handingazoparadzi vachenjeri veEdhomu, varume vazere nokunzwisisa pakati pamakomo eEdhomu here?
9 Teman, your fighting men will be terrified, so that everyone of the mountains of Esau will be cut down in the massacre.
Mhare dzako, iwe Temani, dzichavhunduka, uye vose vari mumakomo aEsau vachaparara pakuurayiwa ikoko.
10 Because of the violence you committed against your brothers, the descendants of Jacob, you will be totally ashamed of yourselves, and destroyed forever.
Nokuda kwokuti wakarwisa mununʼuna wako Jakobho, uchafukidzwa nenyadzi; uchaparadzwa nokusingaperi.
11 On that day you stood aside, on that day strangers plundered their wealth and foreigners entered their gates, and divided up Jerusalem by casting lots—and you were like one of them.
Zuva iro rawakamira kure, vatorwa pavakatakura pfuma yake vakaenda nayo, uye vabvakure vakapinda mumasuo ake, vakakanda mijenya pamusoro peJerusarema, iwe wakaita somumwe wavo.
12 You should not have gloated over your brother's day of disaster. You should not have rejoiced over the day of destruction of the sons of Judah. You should not have boasted over the day of their distress.
Haufaniri kutarisira mununʼuna wako pasi, pazuva rokushayiwa kwake, kana kufara pamusoro pavanhu veJudha, pazuva rokuparadzwa kwavo, kana kuzvikudza zvakanyanya pazuva rokutambudzika kwavo.
13 You should not have marched through the city gates of my people on their day of disaster. You should not have gloated over them on the day of their disaster. You should not have looted their wealth on the day of their disaster.
Hamufaniri kufamba napamasuo avanhu vangu, pazuva renjodzi yavo, kana kuvatarisira pasi vava munjodzi, pazuva renjodzi yavo, kana kuvatorera pfuma yavo pazuva renhamo yavo.
14 You should not have stood at the crossroads, cutting down those trying to escape. You should not have handed over those who survived on the day of their distress.
Hamufaniri kumira pamharadzano dzenzira, kuti muuraye vanotiza vavo, kana kuisa vakasara vavo kuvavengi vavo, pazuva rokutambudzika kwavo.
15 For the day of the Lord is near for all nations. What you have done will be done to you; your actions will fall back on your own heads.
“Zuva raJehovha rava pedyo kundudzi dzose. Sezvamakaita, ndizvo zvichaitwawo kwamuri; mabasa enyu achadzokera pamisoro yenyu chaiyo.
16 For as you drank on my holy mountain, so will all the nations continually drink, and swallow, and they shall be as if they never existed.
Sezvamakanwa pagomo rangu dzvene, saizvozvowo ndudzi dzose dzicharamba dzichingonwa; dzichanwa nokunwa dzikaita sedzisina kumbovapo.
17 But on Mount Zion there will be a place of escape, a holy place, and the descendants of Jacob will reclaim their inheritance.
Asi paGomo reZioni pachava nokununurwa; richava dzvene, uye imba yaJakobho ichadzoserwa nhaka yayo.
18 The descendants of Jacob will become a fire, and the descendants of Joseph a flame, and they shall burn up the descendants of Esau like stubble, consuming them completely, so that there will be not a single survivor of the descendants of Esau. For the Lord has spoken.
Imba yaJakobho ichava moto, uye imba yaJosefa murazvo womoto; imba yaEsau ichava mashanga, uye vachaipisa nomoto vagoipedza. Hakuzovi navanopona muimba yaEsau.” Jehovha ataura izvozvo.
19 Those living in the Negev will occupy the mountains of Esau; those from the foothills of Judah will occupy the land of the Philistines, and possess the fields of Ephraim and Samaria; those from the tribe of Benjamin will occupy Gilead.
Vanhu vanobva kuNegevhi vachagara mumakomo aEsau, uye vanhu vanobva mujinga mezvikomo vachatora nyika yavaFiristia kuti ive yavo. Vachatora minda yaEfuremu pamwe chete neSamaria, kuti zvive zvavo, uye Bhenjamini achatora Gireadhi kuti ive yake.
20 The army of exiles of the people of Israel shall possess the land of the Canaanites as far as Zarephath, and the exiles of Jerusalem from Sepharad shall possess the cities of the Negev.
Ungano iyi yavaIsraeri vakadzingwa vagere muKenani ichatora nyika kusvikira kuZarefati; vakadzingwa kubva muJerusarema vagere muSefaradhi vachatora maguta eNegevhi.
21 Those who have been saved will go up Mount Zion and rule the mountains of Esau. And the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
Vaponesi vachakwira pamusoro peGomo reZioni, kuti vandotonga makomo aEsau. Uye ushe huchava hwaJehovha.
