Obadiah 1
1 The vision of 'Obadiah: Thus hath said the Lord Eternal concerning Edom, A rumor have we heard from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her to war.
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 make thee small among the nations: thou shalt be greatly despised.
“Kíyèsi i, Èmi yóò sọ ọ́ di kékeré láàrín àwọn kèfèrí; ìwọ yóò sì di gígàn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀.
3 The presumption of thy heart hath beguiled thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; 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 wert to rise as high as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord.
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 How? are thieves come to thee? or night-prowling robbers? how destroyed art thou! would they not have stolen till they 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 are [the treasures] of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things laid open!
Báwo ni a ṣe ṣe àwárí nǹkan Esau, tí a sì wá ohun ìní ìkọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ jáde.
7 Up to the border have accompanied thee all the men of thy confederacy; beguiled, overcome thee have the men that were at peace with thee: [they that eat] thy bread have struck thee secretly a wound. 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 on that same day, saith the Lord, even 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 Theman, shall be dismayed, in order that every one from the mount of Esau may be cut off 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 thy violence against thy brother Jacob shall shame 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 On the day that thou stoodest on the other side, on the day that strangers carried away captive his army, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots over Jerusalem, also thou wast as any 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 shouldst not have looked on [pleased] at the day of thy brother, on the day that he was delivered up to strangers; neither shouldst thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah on the day of their destruction; nor should thou have spoken proudly on 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 shouldst not have entered into the gate of my people on the day of their calamity; yea, thou too shouldst not have looked [pleased] on their affliction on the day of their calamity; nor have laid hands on their army on 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 Neither shouldst thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldst thou have delivered up those of his that did remain on 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 near is the day of the Lord over all the nations: as thou hast done, shall it be done unto thee; thy deeds shall return upon thy 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 mount, so shall all the nations drink continually; yea, they shall drink, and they shall reel about, 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 be deliverance, and it shall be holy: and the house of Jacob shall again possess their inheritances.
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 become stubble, and they shall set them on fire, and devour them; and there shall not be any one remaining of the house of Esau; for the Lord 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 lowlands, the Philistines; and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin [shall possess] Gil'ad.
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 exiles of this host of the children of Israel that are [with] the Canaanites, as far as Zarephath, and the exiles of Jerusalem, who are 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 deliverers shall go up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau: and the kingdom shall be the Lord'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.
