< Obidias 1 >

1 Ti Sirmata ni Obadias. Kastoy ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh nga Apo maipanggep iti Edom: Nakangngegkami iti maysa a damag a naggapu kenni Yahweh, ket adda ti maysa a mangibabaet a naibaon kadagiti nasion a kunana, “Agtignay kayo, intayo gubaten isuna”.
The vision of Obdias. Thus saith the Lord God to Idumea; I have heard a report from the Lord, and he has sent forth a message to the nations.
2 Dumngegka, pagbalinenka a kabassitan kadagiti nasion, ket kastanto unay iti pannakalaismo.
Arise ye, and let us rise up against her to war.
3 Inallilawnaka ti kinapannakkel ti pusom, sika nga agnanaed iti nagbabaetan ti bato, iti nakangatngato a pagtaengam, sika a mangibagbaga dita pusom, “Siasinonto ngay ti mangipababa kaniak iti daga?”
Behold, I have made thee small among the Gentiles: thou art greatly dishonoured. The pride of thine heart has elated thee, dwelling [as thou dost] in the holes of the rocks, [as one that] exalts his habitation, saying in his heart, Who will bring me down to the ground?
4 Numan pay nangato ti panagtayabmo a kas iti agila, ken numan pay naiyaramid ti umokmo iti ayan dagiti bituen, ipababakanto manipud sadiay, kuna ni Yahweh.
If thou shouldest mount up as the eagle, and if thou shouldest make thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord.
5 No immay dagiti agtatakaw kenka, no immay dagiti agtatakaw iti rabii, (anian a pannakadadaelmo koma!), saan kadi a ti laeng takawenda ket ti kapkapnekanda? Ket no immay kenka dagiti agburburas iti ubas, saan kadi nga agibatida iti sumagmamano?
If thieves came in to thee, or robbers by night, where wouldest thou have been cast away? would they not have stolen [just] enough for themselves? and if grape-gatherers went in to thee, would they not leave a gleaning?
6 Anian a pannakasamsam dagiti sanikua ni Esau, ken pannakaduktal kadagiti ilemlemmengna a kinabaknang!
How has Esau been searched out, and [how] have his hidden things been detected?
7 Amin dagiti lallaki a nakikadua kenka, ituloddakanto iti ayan ti beddeng. Inallilawdaka dagiti lallaki a nakikapia idi kenka, ket pinarmekdaka. Nangaramid iti palab-og iti babaem dagiti tattao a nangan iti tinapaymo. Awan iti pannakaawat kenkuana.
They sent thee to thy coasts: all the men of thy covenant have withstood thee; thine allies have prevailed against thee, they have set snares under thee: they have no understanding.
8 Kuna ni Yahweh, apay ti kunam, saankonto a dadaelen dagiti masirib a lallaki a naggapu iti Edom, ken saanko a pukawen ti pannakaawat manipud iti bantay ni Esau?”.
In that day, saith the Lord, I will destroy the wise men out of Idumea, and understanding out of the mount of Esau.
9 “Ket mapukawanto iti namnama dagiti nasisiglat a lallaki nga adda kenka Teman, iti kasta ket maisina ti tunggal lalaki manipud iti bantay ni Esau babaen iti namimpinsan a pannakapapatay.
And thy warriors from Thaeman shall be dismayed, to the end that man may be cut off from the mount of Esau.
10 Gapu iti kinaranggas a napasamak iti kabsatmo a ni Jacob, maibabainkanto iti kasta unay, ket mapukawkanto iti agnanayon.
Because of the slaughter and the sin [committed against] thy brother Jacob, shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
11 Iti aldaw nga agtaktakderka a nakayakay, iti aldaw nga intalaw dagiti gangannaet ti kinabaknangna, ken simrek dagiti gangannaet kadagiti ruanganna, ken nagbibinnunotanda ti Jerusalem, kasla ka a maysa kadakuada.
From the day that thou stoodest in opposition [to him], in the days when foreigners were taking captive his forces, and strangers entered into his gates, and cast lots on Jerusalem, thou also wast as one of them.
12 Ngem saanka koma a nagragsak iti aldaw ti kabsatmo, iti aldaw iti kinadaksanggasatna, ken saanka koma a nagrag-o iti aldaw a pannakadadael dagiti tattao ti Juda; saanka koma a nagparammag iti aldaw a nagsagsagabada.
And thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day of strangers; nor shouldest thou have rejoiced against the children of Juda in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have boasted in the day of [their] affliction.
13 Saanka koma a simrek iti ruangan dagiti tattaok iti aldaw a pannakadidigrada; saanka koma a naragsakan iti panaglidayda iti aldaw iti panagrigrigatda, saanmo koma a tinakaw dagiti kinabaknangda iti aldaw a pannakadadaelda.
Neither shouldest thou have gone into the gates of the people in the day of their troubles; nor yet shouldest thou have looked upon their gathering in the day of their destruction, nor shouldest thou have attacked their host in the day of their perishing.
14 Ken saanka koma a nagtakder iti nagsasangalan dagiti kalsada tapno tiliwen dagiti nakalibas a tattaona; ken saanmo koma nga impaima dagiti nakalasat a tattaona kadagiti kabusorda iti aldaw iti panagsagsagabada.
Neither shouldest thou have stood at the opening of their passages, to destroy utterly those of them that were escaping; neither shouldest thou have shut up his fugitives in the day of affliction.
15 Ta asidegen ti aldaw ni Yahweh kadagiti amin a nasion. No ania ti inaramidmo, maaramidto met kenka. Dagiti aramidmo ket agsublinto metlaengkenka.
For the day of the Lord is near upon all the Gentiles: as thou have done, so shall it be [done] to thee: thy recompense shall be returned on thine [own] head.
16 Gapu ta kas iti panagbartekmo iti nasantoan a bantayko, kasta met nga aminto dagiti nasion ket saanto nga agsardeng iti panaginomda. Aginom ken agtilmondanto, a kasla la saanda pulos a nagbiag.
For as thou hast drunk upon my holy mountain, [so] shall all the nations drink wine; they shall drink, and go down, and be as if they were not.
17 Ngem idiay Bantay Sion, addanto dagiti makalibas, ket agbalinto a nasantoan daytoy; ket tagikuaento manen ti balay ni Jacob dagiti bukodda a sanikua.
But on mount Sion there shall be deliverance, and there shall be a sanctuary; and the house of Jacob shall take for an inheritance those that took them for an inheritance.
18 Agbalinto nga apuy ti balay ni Jacob, ket agbalinto a gil-ayab ti balay ni Jose, ken agbalinto a garami ti balay ni Esau, ket puorandanto ida, ket mauramdanto. Awanto ti makalasat kadagiti adda iti balay ni Esau, ta daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.
And the house of Jacob shall be fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau [shall be] for stubble; and [Israel] shall flame forth against them, and shall devour them, and there shall not be a corn-field [left] to the house of Esau; because the Lord has spoken.
19 Ket tagikuaento dagiti naggapu idiay Negeb ti bantay ni Esau, ken dagiti naggapu iti Shepelah ket tagikuaendanto ti daga dagiti Filisteo; ken tagikuaendanto ti daga ti Efraim, ken ti daga ti Samaria; ket tagikuaento met ti Benjamin ti Gilead.
And they [that dwell] in the south shall inherit the mount of Esau, and they in the plain the Philistines: and they shall inherit the mount of Ephraim, and the plain of Samaria, and Benjamin, and the land of Galaad.
20 Dagiti naipanaw a balud manipud kadagiti tattao ti Israel ket tagikuaendanto ti daga ti Canaan agingga idiay Sarepat. Ket dagiti naipanaw a nagbalin a balud manipud Jerusalem nga adda idiay Sepharad, tagikuaendanto dagiti siyudad iti Negeb.
And this [shall be] the domain of the captivity of the children of Israel, the land of the Chananites as far as Sarepta; and the captives of Jerusalem [shall inherit] as far as Ephratha; they shall inherit the cities of the south.
21 Sumang-atto idiay bantay Sion dagiti mangispal tapno ukomenda ti bantay ni Esau, ket agbalinto a kukua ni Yahweh ti pagarian.
And they that escape shall come up from mount Sion, to take vengeance on the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
