< 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 '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.
2 Dumngegka, pagbalinenka a kabassitan kadagiti nasion, ket kastanto unay iti pannakalaismo.
Behold, I 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 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?
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 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.
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?
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?
6 Anian a pannakasamsam dagiti sanikua ni Esau, ken pannakaduktal kadagiti ilemlemmengna a kinabaknang!
How are [the treasures] of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things laid open!
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.
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.
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?”.
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?
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 mighty men, O Theman, shall be dismayed, in order that every one from the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
10 Gapu iti kinaranggas a napasamak iti kabsatmo a ni Jacob, maibabainkanto iti kasta unay, ket mapukawkanto iti agnanayon.
Because of thy violence against thy brother Jacob shall shame 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.
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.
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 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.
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 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;
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 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.
15 Ta asidegen ti aldaw ni Yahweh kadagiti amin a nasion. No ania ti inaramidmo, maaramidto met kenka. Dagiti aramidmo ket agsublinto metlaengkenka.
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.
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 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.
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 again possess their inheritances.
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
21 Sumang-atto idiay bantay Sion dagiti mangispal tapno ukomenda ti bantay ni Esau, ket agbalinto a kukua ni Yahweh ti pagarian.
And deliverers shall go up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau: and the kingdom shall be the Lord's
