Obadiah 1
1 Thus said Lord YHWH to Edom (We have heard a report from YHWH, And an ambassador among nations was sent, “Rise, indeed, let us rise against her for battle”):
俄巴底亞得了耶和華的默示。 論以東說： 我從耶和華那裏聽見信息， 並有使者被差往列國去， 說：起來吧， 一同起來與以東爭戰！
2 “Behold, I have made you little among nations, You [are] despised exceedingly.
我使你－以東在列國中為最小的， 被人大大藐視。
3 The pride of your heart has lifted you up, O dweller in clefts of a rock (A high place [is] his habitation, He is saying in his heart: Who brings me down [to] earth?)
住在山穴中、居所在高處的啊， 你因狂傲自欺， 心裏說：誰能將我拉下地去呢？
4 If you go up high as an eagle, And if you set your nest between stars, From there I bring you down,” A declaration of YHWH.
你雖如大鷹高飛， 在星宿之間搭窩， 我必從那裏拉下你來。 這是耶和華說的。
5 “If thieves have come in to you, If spoilers of the night, How have you been cut off! Do they not steal their sufficiency? If gatherers have come in to you, Do they not leave gleanings?
盜賊若來在你那裏， 或強盜夜間而來－ 你何竟被剪除－ 豈不偷竊直到夠了呢？ 摘葡萄的若來到你那裏， 豈不剩下些葡萄呢？
6 How has Esau been searched out! His hidden things have flowed out,
以掃的隱密處何竟被搜尋？ 他隱藏的寶物何竟被查出？
7 All your allies have sent you to the border, Forgotten you, prevailed over you, have your friends, They make your bread a snare under you, There is no understanding in him!
與你結盟的都送你上路，直到交界； 與你和好的欺騙你，且勝過你； 與你一同吃飯的設下網羅陷害你； 在你心裏毫無聰明。
8 Is it not in that day,” a declaration of YHWH, “That I have destroyed the wise out of Edom, And understanding out of the mountain of Esau?
耶和華說：到那日， 我豈不從以東除滅智慧人？ 從以掃山除滅聰明人？
9 And your mighty ones have been broken down, O Teman, So that everyone of the mountain of Esau is cut off.
提幔哪， 你的勇士必驚惶， 甚至以掃山的人都被殺戮剪除。
10 For slaughter, for violence [to] your brother Jacob, Shame covers you, And you have been cut off for all time.
因你向兄弟雅各行強暴， 羞愧必遮蓋你， 你也必永遠斷絕。
11 In the day of your standing aloof from the opposite [side], In the day of strangers taking his force captive, And foreigners have entered his gates, And have cast a lot for Jerusalem, Even you [are] as one of them!
當外人擄掠雅各的財物， 外邦人進入他的城門， 為耶路撒冷拈鬮的日子， 你竟站在一旁，像與他們同夥。
12 And—you do not look on the day of your brother, On the day of his alienation, Nor do you rejoice over sons of Judah, In the day of their destruction, Nor make your mouth great in a day of distress.
你兄弟遭難的日子， 你不當瞪眼看着； 猶大人被滅的日子， 你不當因此歡樂； 他們遭難的日子， 你不當說狂傲的話。
13 Nor come into a gate of My people in a day of their calamity, Nor look, even you, on its misfortune in a day of its calamity, Nor send forth against its force in a day of its calamity,
我民遭災的日子， 你不當進他們的城門； 他們遭災的日子， 你不當瞪眼看着他們受苦； 他們遭災的日子， 你不當伸手搶他們的財物；
14 Nor stand by the breach to cut off its escaped, Nor deliver up its remnant in a day of distress.
你不當站在岔路口剪除他們中間逃脫的； 他們遭難的日子， 你不當將他們剩下的人交付仇敵。
15 For near [is] the Day of YHWH, on all the nations, As you have done, it is done to you, Your deed turns back on your own head.
耶和華降罰的日子臨近萬國。 你怎樣行，他也必照樣向你行； 你的報應必歸到你頭上。
16 For—as you have drunk on My holy mountain, All the nations drink continually, And they have drunk and have swallowed, And they have been as [if] they have not been.
你們猶大人在我聖山怎樣喝了苦杯， 萬國也必照樣常常地喝； 且喝且咽，他們就歸於無有。
17 And in Mount Zion there is an escape, And it has been holy, And the house of Jacob has possessed their possessions.
在錫安山必有逃脫的人， 那山也必成聖； 雅各家必得原有的產業。
18 And the house of Jacob has been a fire, And the house of Joseph a flame, And the house of Esau for stubble, And they have burned among them, And they have consumed them, And there is not a remnant to the house of Esau,” For YHWH has spoken.
雅各家必成為大火； 約瑟家必為火焰； 以掃家必如碎稭； 火必將他燒着吞滅。 以掃家必無餘剩的。 這是耶和華說的。
19 And they have possessed the south with the mountain of Esau, And the low country with the Philistines, And they have possessed the field of Ephraim, And the field of Samaria, And Benjamin with Gilead.
南地的人必得以掃山； 高原的人必得非利士地， 也得以法蓮地和撒馬利亞地； 便雅憫人必得基列。
20 And the expulsion of this force of the sons of Israel, That [is with] the Canaanites to Zarephat, And the expulsion of Jerusalem that [is] with the Sepharad, Possess the cities of the south.
在迦南人中被擄的以色列眾人 必得地直到撒勒法； 在西法拉中被擄的耶路撒冷人 必得南地的城邑。
21 And saviors have gone up on Mount Zion, To judge the mountain of Esau, And the kingdom has been to YHWH!
必有拯救者上到錫安山，審判以掃山； 國度就歸耶和華了。
