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 prophecy of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord Jehovah concerning Edom. We have heard a message from Jehovah, And an ambassador hath been sent among the nations “Arise ye, and let us rise up against her to war.”
2 Dumngegka, pagbalinenka a kabassitan kadagiti nasion, ket kastanto unay iti pannakalaismo.
Behold, I will make thee small among the nations; Thou shalt be greatly despised.
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?”
The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, Thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, Whose habitation is high, Who sayest in thine heart, “Who shall 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.
Though thou lift thyself up as the eagle, And though thou set thy nest among the stars, Thence will I bring thee down, saith Jehovah.
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 had come upon thee, Or robbers by night, Would they not have ceased stealing when they had enough? How art thou utterly destroyed! If grape-gatherers had come upon thee, Would they not have left gleanings of the grapes?
6 Anian a pannakasamsam dagiti sanikua ni Esau, ken pannakaduktal kadagiti ilemlemmengna a kinabaknang!
How is Esau searched through! How are his hidden places explored!
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.
All thine allies have brought thee to the border; They that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; They that ate thy bread have spread a snare under thee; There is no understanding in thee.
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 Jehovah, I will destroy the wise men from Edom, And understanding from 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.
Thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed; Every one shall 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.
For slaughter and for oppression of thy brother Jacob shall shame cover thee, And thou shalt be destroyed forever.
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.
In the day when thou stoodest over against him, In the day when strangers carried away captive his forces, And when foreigners entered his gates, And when they cast lots upon 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.
But thou shouldst not have looked with delight on the day of thy brother in the day of his calamity; Nor shouldst thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction, Nor have spoken haughtily in the day of his distress.
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.
Thou shouldst not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity, Nor have looked with delight on their affliction in the day of their calamity, Nor have laid hand on their substance in the day of their calamity,
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.
Nor have stood in the cross-way to cut off their fugitives, Nor have delivered up those that remained in the day of distress!
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 Jehovah is near upon all the nations: As thou hast done, so shall it be done to thee; Thy dealing shall return upon 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 ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, So shall all the nations drink perpetually, Yea, they shall drink and swallow it down, And they shall be as though they had not been.
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 upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and it shall be holy; And the house of Jacob shall regain their possessions.
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 a fire, And the house of Joseph a flame, And the house of Esau stubble, And they shall kindle them and devour them. And there shall be none remaining of the house of Esau; For Jehovah hath spoken it.
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 of the south shall possess the mountain of Esau, And they of the plain, the Philistines; And they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, And the fields of Samaria; And Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
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 the captives of this host of the sons of Israel shall possess the land of the Canaanites unto Sarepta, And the captives of Jerusalem which are at Sepharad shall possess 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 saviors shall go up to mount Zion, To rule the mount of Esau. And the kingdom shall be Jehovah's.
