Obadiah 1
1 [the] vision of Obadiah thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh of Edom a report we have heard from with Yahweh and an envoy among the nations he has been sent arise so let us arise on it for battle.
Kĩoneki kĩa Obadia. Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ ũhoro ũkoniĩ Edomu: Nĩtũiguĩte ũhoro uumĩte kũrĩ Jehova. Mũtũmwo nĩatũmirwo kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ oige atĩrĩ, “Arahũkai, tũthiĩ tũmũũkĩrĩre, tũrũe nake”:
2 Here! small I will make you among the nations [will be] despised you exceedingly.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩngakũnyiihia maitho-inĩ ma ndũrĩrĩ; nawe nĩũkameneka biũ.
3 [the] presumption of Heart your it has deceived you O dweller in clefts of rock [the] height of dwelling his [who] says in heart his who? will he bring down me [the] ground.
Mwĩtĩĩo wa ngoro yaku nĩũkũheenetie, wee ũtũũraga kũu ngurunga-inĩ cia mahiga, na ũgathondeka gĩikaro gĩaku kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, o wee wĩĩraga na ngoro atĩrĩ, ‘Nũũ ũngĩhota kũũharũrũkia andehe nginya thĩ?’
4 If you will make high like eagle and if between [the] stars [will be] set nest your from there I will bring down you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
O na ũngĩkorwo ũmbũkaga na igũrũ ta nderi, na ũgaaka gĩtara gĩaku o kũu njata irĩ, nĩngakũharũrũkia thĩ ngũrute kuo,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
5 If thieves they came to you if destroyers of night how! you will be destroyed ¿ not will they steal sufficiency their if grape gatherers they came to you ¿ not will they leave gleanings.
“Ũngĩkorwo nĩ aici, o na kana ũkorwo nĩ atunyani ũtukũ-rĩ, kaĩ mwanangĩko nĩũgwetereire-ĩ! Githĩ matingĩiya o nginya maiganie? Atui a thabibũ mangĩũka gwaku-rĩ, githĩ to matigie tũthabibũ tũnini tũngĩhaarwo?
6 How! they will be plundered Esau they will be searched out hidden treasures its.
No kaĩ Esaũ nĩakongũrũrio-ĩ, nakĩo kĩgĩĩna gĩake kĩrĩa kĩhithe gĩgĩtahwo-ĩ!
7 To the border they will send away you all [the] men of covenant your they will deceive you they will prevail to you [the] men of peace your food your they will set a trap under you there not [is] understanding in him.
Andũ othe arĩa mũgwatanagĩra nao nĩmagakũingata nginya mũhaka-inĩ; arata aku nĩmagakũheenia na magũtoorie; arĩa marĩĩaga irio ciaku nĩmagakũigĩra mũtego, no wee ndũkamenya.”
8 ¿ Not on the day that ([the] utterance of *L(abh)*) Yahweh and I will destroy wise [people] from Edom and understanding from [the] mountain of Esau.
Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Githĩ mũthenya ũcio ndikaananga andũ arĩa oogĩ a Edomu, na nyanange andũ arĩa marĩ ũmenyo kũu irĩma-inĩ cia Esaũ?
9 And they will be dismayed warriors your O Teman so that he may be cut off everyone from [the] mountain of Esau from slaughter.
Atĩrĩrĩ, wee Temani, njamba ciaku cia ita nĩikaamaka, na andũ othe arĩa matũũraga irĩma-inĩ cia Esaũ mooragwo, maniinwo.
10 From [the] violence of brother your Jacob it will cover you shame and you will be cut off for ever.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ngũĩ ya gũũkĩrĩra mũrũ wa nyũkwa Jakubu, nĩũgaconorithio; nĩũkaniinwo nginya tene.
11 On [the] day standing you from before on [the] day took captive strangers wealth his and foreigners they came (gates his *Q(K)*) and on Jerusalem they cast a lot also you [were] like one from them.
Mũthenya ũrĩa wamũtiganĩirie, rĩrĩa andũ a kũngĩ maatahire ũtonga wake, nao ageni magĩtoonyera ihingo-inĩ ciake, na magĩcuukĩra Jerusalemu mĩtĩ-rĩ, we watariĩ o ta ũmwe wao.
12 And may not you look on [the] day of brother your on [the] day of misfortune his and may not you rejoice to [the] people of Judah on [the] day perish they and may not you make big mouth your on [the] day of trouble.
No wee ndũngĩanyararire mũrũ wa nyũkwa mũthenya wake wa mũtino, kana ũkenerere andũ a Juda mũthenya ũrĩa maaniinagwo, o na kana wĩtĩĩe mũno mũthenya ũrĩa maarĩ na thĩĩna.
13 May not you go in [the] gate of people my on [the] day of disaster their may not you look also you on calamity his on [the] day of disaster his and may not you stretch out on wealth his on [the] day of disaster his.
Wee ndũngĩatuĩkanĩirie ihingo-inĩ cia andũ akwa mũthenya wao wa mwanangĩko, kana ũmanyarare hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maarĩ na mũnyarirĩko mũthenya wao wa kwanangwo, kana ũtahe ũtonga wao mũthenya ũcio wa mwanangĩko.
14 And may not you stand at the parting of ways to cut off fugitives his and may not you deliver up survivors his on [the] day of trouble.
Wee ndwagĩrĩirwo kũmooheria magomano-inĩ ma njĩra nĩguo ũũrage arĩa mooraga, kana ũneane matigari mao mũthenya ũcio maarĩ na thĩĩna.
15 For [is] near [the] day of Yahweh on all the nations just as you have done it will be done to you recompense your it will return on own head your.
“Mũthenya wa Jehova ũrĩ hakuhĩ gũkinyĩra ndũrĩrĩ ciothe. O ũrĩa wĩkĩte, noguo nawe ũgeekwo; ciĩko ciaku nĩigagũcookerera.
16 For just as you have drunk on [the] mountain of holiness my they will drink all the nations continually and they will drink and they will swallow and they will be like not they had been.
O ta ũrĩa inyuĩ mwanyuĩrĩire gĩkombe gĩakwa kĩa iherithia kũu kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩakwa gĩtheru-rĩ, ũguo noguo ndũrĩrĩ ciothe igaakĩnyuĩra itegũtigithĩria. Ikaanyua ikĩhũhũte, ininũkio, nacio ihaane ta itarĩ ciakorwo kuo.
17 And on [the] mountain of Zion it will be deliverance and it will be a holy place and they will take possession of [the] house Jacob possessions their.
No rĩrĩ, kũu Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Zayuni nĩgũgakorwo na ũhonokio; nakĩo kĩrĩma kĩu gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ gĩtheru, nayo nyũmba ya Jakubu nĩĩkegwatĩra igai rĩayo.
18 And it will be [the] house of Jacob a fire and [the] house of Joseph [will be] a flame and [the] house of Esau [will become] stubble and they will burn them and they will consume them and not he will belong a survivor to [the] house of Esau for Yahweh he has spoken.
Nyũmba ya Jakubu ĩgaatuĩka ta mwaki, nayo nyũmba ya Jusufu ĩtuĩke ta rũrĩrĩmbĩ; nayo nyũmba ya Esaũ ĩgaatuĩka ta maragara ma mahuti, na nĩmakamĩmundia mwaki, ũmĩniine biũ. Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũgaatigara wa kuuma nyũmba ya Esaũ.” Jehova nĩwe uugĩte ũguo.
19 And they will take possession of the Negev [the] mountain of Esau and the Shephelah Philistines and they will take possession of [the] region of Ephraim and [the] region of Samaria and Benjamin Gilead.
Andũ a Negevu nĩmagaikara irĩma-inĩ cia Esaũ, nao andũ arĩa maikaraga magũrũ-inĩ ma tũrĩma megwatĩre bũrũri wa Afilisti. Nĩmagaikara mĩgũnda-inĩ ya Efiraimu, na ya Samaria, nake Benjamini egwatĩre Gileadi.
20 And [the] exile[s] of the fortress this of [the] people of Israel who [will be] Canaanites to Zarephath and [the] exile[s] of Jerusalem who [are] in Sepharad they will take possession of [the] cities of the Negev.
Gĩkundi kĩrĩa gĩatahĩtwo kĩa andũ a Isiraeli kĩrĩa kĩrĩ kũu Kaanani, gĩkeegwatĩra bũrũri ũcio o nginya Zarefathu; nao andũ arĩa maatahirwo kuuma Jerusalemu, acio marĩ kũu Sefaradi, nĩo makegwatĩra matũũra ma Negevu.
21 And they will go up deliverers on [the] mountain of Zion to rule [the] mountain of Esau and it will belong to Yahweh the kingship.
Andũ a kũhonokania nĩmakambata Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Zayuni nĩguo maathanage kũu irĩma-inĩ cia Esaũ. Naguo ũthamaki ũgaatuĩka wa Jehova.
