Obadiah 1
1 Pa inge kas in palu lal Obadiah — ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk ke acn Edom. LEUM GOD El supwala mwet roso lal nu sin mutunfacl uh Ac kut lohng kas lal: “Akola! Kut som mweun acn Edom!”
The vision of Obadiah. Thus says the Lord God to Edom: We have heard a report from the Lord, and he has sent an envoy to the nations: “Arise, and let us together rise up in battle against him.”
2 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin Edom, “Nga fah oru tuh kom in munas inmasrlon mutunfacl uh. Mwet nukewa ac fah kwase kom.
Behold, I have made you little among the nations. You are greatly contemptible.
3 Inse fulat lom kiapwekomla. Siti fulat sum kalkalyak ke eot ku. Acn in muta lom oan yen fulat fineol uh, Ouinge kom nunku sum sifacna, ‘Su ac ku in amakinyuwi nu ten?’
The arrogance of your heart has lifted you up, living in the clefts of the rocks, exalting your throne. You say in your heart, “Who will pull me down to the ground?”
4 Kom finne oakiya acn sum in oan fin acn fulat Oana ahng lun eagle uh, Ac lumweyuk mu oan inmasrlon itu uh, Nga ac fah amakinkomi nu ten.
Though you have been lifted high like an eagle, and though you have placed your nest among the stars, from there I will pull you down, says the Lord.
5 “Pacl se mwet pisrapasr uh tuku ke fong, Eltal eis na ma eltal lungse mukena. Pacl se mwet uh kosrani grape uh, Elos ac filiya kutu in oanna. A funu mwet lokoalok lowos uh, elos ac sikikowosla nufon!
If thieves had approached you, if robbers by night, how would you have remained unnoticed? Would they not have stolen all that they wanted? If the grape-pickers had approached you, would they not have left you at least a cluster?
6 Kowos fwil natul Esau, ma saok lowos ayukla suwos.
In what way have they been examining Esau? They investigated his secrets.
7 Mwet ma asruoki nu suwos, elos kiapwekowosla, Elos liskowosla liki facl suwos. Elos misla yuruwos meet, a inge elos kutangkowosla. Elos su wi kowos na mongo meet, inge elos oakiya mwe kwasrip nu suwos. Elos aksruksruk keiwos ac fahk, ‘Pia sruk usrnguk lalos an?’
They have sent you out all the way to the limit. All the men of your alliance have deceived you. Your men of peace have prevailed against you. Those who eat with you will place snares under you. There is no foresight in him.
8 “Ke len se nga ac kalyei Edom, Nga ac kunausla mwet usrnguk lalos, Ac eisla lalmwetmet lalos.
Shall I not, in that day, says the Lord, wipe away understanding from Idumea and foresight from the mount of Esau?
9 Mwet watwen in acn Teman ac arulana tuninfongla, Ac mwet mweun nukewa in Edom ac fah anwukla.
And your strong from the Meridian will be afraid, so that man may perish from the mount of Esau.
10 “Mweyen kowos onela ac pisre Ma lun sou lowos, su tulik natul Jacob, Kowos ac fah kunausyukla ac aklusrongtenyeyuk nwe tok.
Because of the execution, and because of the iniquity against your brother Jacob, confusion will cover you, and you will pass away into eternity.
11 Kowos tu na ngetang ke len se ma Mwet lokoalok uh kunausla mutunpot lalos. Lupan koluk lowos an oana koluk lun mwetsac Su usla mwe kasrup in acn Jerusalem Ac kitalik inmasrlolos.
In the day when you stood against him, when strangers seized his army, and foreigners entered into his gates, and they cast lots over Jerusalem: you also were just like one of them.
12 Tiana wo ke kowos tuh pwarkin Ongoiya ma sikyak nu sin mwet Judah wiowos. Tiana wo ke kowos tuh engan Ke len in musalla lalos. Tia pac wo ke kowos tuh isrunulos Ke elos muta in keok.
But you shall not show disdain for the day of your brother in the day of his sojourn. And you shall not rejoice over the sons of Judah in the day of their perdition. And you shall not magnify your mouth in the day of anguish.
13 Tiana wo ke kowos tuh utyak nu in siti lun mwet luk In pwarkin keok lalos, Ac in eisla mwe kasrup lalos Ke len in ongoiya lalos.
And neither shall you enter into the gate of my people in the day of their ruin. And neither shall you also show disdain for his troubles in the day of his desolation. And you shall not send out against his army in the day of his desolation.
14 Tiana wo ke kowos tuh ke inkanek sengelik In sruokolos su srike in kaing. Tiana wo ke kowos tuh eisalosyang nu inpoun mwet lokoalok lalos Ke len in ongoiya lalos.
Neither shall you stand at the exits to execute those who will flee. And you shall not enclose their remnant in the day of tribulation.
15 “Len se apkuranme ke nga, LEUM GOD, Fah nununku mutunfacl nukewa. Edom, ma kom orala tari Ac fah orek nu sum. Orekma sufal lom nukewa ac fah folokot pacna nu sum.
For the day of the Lord is near, over all nations. Just as you have done, so will it be done to you. He will turn back your retribution on your own head.
16 Mwet luk elos numla sie cup in kalya arulana mwen Fineol mutal sik, Tusruktu, mutunfacl nukewa raunela ac fah nim pac Sie cup in kalya su mwen liki na. Elos fah numla nufon, na elos wanginla.
For in the manner that you drank on my holy mountain, so shall all nations drink continually. And they will drink, and they will absorb, and they will be as if they were not.
17 “Tusruktu kutu ac fah tia sruh Fineol Zion, Na acn we ac fah sie acn mutal. Ac fah ma lun mwet lal Jacob Acn se su nuna ma lalos meet.
And on mount Zion there will be salvation, and it will be holy. And the house of Jacob will possess those who had possessed them.
18 Mwet lal Jacob ac mwet lal Joseph ac fah oana firir in e; Elos ac fah sukela mwet lal Esau Oana e uh esukla sroan mah. Wangin mwet in fwil natul Esau fah moul. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk.
And the house of Jacob will be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau stubble. And they will be set on fire among them, and they will devour them. And there will be no remnant of the house of Esau, for the Lord has spoken.
19 “Mwet in acn eir in Judah fah muta fin acn Edom. Elos su muta ke eol srisrik layen nu roto, fah sruokya acn Philistia. Mwet Israel fah eis acn lun Ephraim ac Samaria. Mwet Benjamin fah eis acn Gilead.
And those who are towards the South, and who are in the camps of the Philistines, will inherit the mount of Esau. And they will possess the region of Ephraim, and the region of Samaria. And Benjamin will possess Gilead.
20 Mwet epang in Israel su muta in sruoh elos fah orala sie un mwet mweun Su fah foloko ac sruokya acn Phoenicia, fahla nwe Zarephath su oan epang. Mwet sruoh lun Jerusalem su muta Sardis Fah sruokya siti srisrik layen eir in Judah.
And the exiles of this army of the sons of Israel, all the places of the Canaanites all the way to Sarepta, and the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Bosphoro, will possess the cities of the South.
21 Tukun mwet Jerusalem elos kutangla acn inge nukewa Elos fah utyak mweuni acn Edom ac leumi acn we. Ac LEUM GOD El fah leum fin tokosrai sac nufon.”
And the saviors will ascend to mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau. And the kingdom will be for the Lord.
