1 Obadijas parādīšana. Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs par Edomu. Mēs esam vēsti dzirdējuši no Tā Kunga, un vēstnesis ir sūtīts starp pagāniem: ceļaties! Tad celsimies pret viņu karā.
The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning Edom; We have heard a rumor from the LORD, and an embassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.
2 Redzi, Es tevi esmu mazu darījis starp tiem pagāniem, tu esi ļoti nicināts.
Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.
3 Tava sirds lielība tevi pievīlusi; tu dzīvo klints alās, savos augstos dzīvokļos, un saki savā sirdī: kas mani nometīs pie zemes?
The pride of thy heart hath deceived 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 Jebšu tu celtos kā ērglis, un jebšu tu savu ligzdu taisītu starp zvaigznēm, taču Es tevi no turienes nometīšu, saka Tas Kungs.
Though thou shalt exalt [thyself] as the eagle, and though thou shalt set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD.
5 Kad zagļi vai laupītāji pie tevis naktī būtu nākuši, (ak, kā tu esi izdeldēts!) vai tie nebūtu zaguši savu tiesu? Kad vīna lasītāji pie tevis būtu nākuši, vai tie kādas vīna stīgas nebūtu atlicinājuši?
If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? if the grape-gatherers came to thee, would they not leave [some] grapes?
6 Kā Ēsava (mantas) ir izmeklētas un viņa apslēptās lietas izvaicātas!
How are [the things] of Esau searched out! [how] are his hidden things sought!
7 Visi tavi biedri tevi izdzen no savām robežām ārā, tavi draugi tevi pieviļ un pārvar; kas tavu maizi ēd, tie tevi ievaino. Saprašanas pie viņa nav.
All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee [even] to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, [and] prevailed against thee; [they that eat] thy bread have laid a wound under thee: [there is] no understanding in him.
8 Vai tas nenotiks tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es iznīcināšu tos gudros no Edoma un saprašanu no Ēsava kalniem?
Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, even destroy the wise [men] out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
9 Tavi varenie, Tēman, baiļosies, lai ikviens no Ēsava kalniem top izdeldēts kaujā.
And thy mighty [men], O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
10 Tā varas darba dēļ, ko tu savam brālim Jēkabam esi padarījis, kauns tevi apsegs, un tu tapsi izdeldēts mūžīgi.
For [thy] violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
11 Tai dienā, kad tu viņam stāvēji pretī, tai dienā, kad naidnieki viņa spēku aizveda cietumā un svešinieki iegāja pa viņa vārtiem un meslus meta par Jeruzālemi, tad tu arīdzan biji kā viens no tiem.
In the day that thou stoodst on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou [wast] as one of them.
12 Bet tev vairs ar prieku nebūs redzēt sava brāļa dienu, viņa nelaimes dienu, nedz līksmoties par Jūda bērniem viņu bēdu dienā, nedz lepoties ar savu muti bailības dienā.
But thou shouldst not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldst thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldst thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.
13 Neej pa Manu ļaužu vārtiem viņu nelaimes dienā, nedz skaties uz viņu ļaunumu viņu posta dienā, nedz izstiep (rokas) pēc viņu mantām viņu bēdu dienā.
Thou shouldst not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yes, thou shouldst not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid [hands] on their substance in the day of their calamity;
14 Nestāvi uz ceļa jūtīm, viņu bēgļus izdeldēt, nedz nodod viņu atlikušos bēdu dienā.
Neither shouldst thou have stood in the cross-way, to cut off those of his that escaped; neither shouldst thou have delivered up those of his that remained in the day of distress.
15 Jo Tā Kunga diena ir klāt pār visiem pagāniem. Tā kā tu esi darījis, tāpat tev darīs, tavi darbi atgriezīsies uz tavu galvu.
For the day of the LORD [is] near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done to thee: thy reward shall return upon thy own head.
16 Jo kā jūs esiet dzēruši (Manu dusmu kausu) uz Mana svētā kalna, tā visi pagāni dzers bez mitēšanās, it tiešām tie dzers un plītēs, un būs tā kā tie tur nebūtu bijuši.
For as ye have drank upon my holy mountain, [so] shall all the heathen drink continually, yes, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.
17 Bet uz Ciānas kalna būs izglābšana, un tas būs par svētumu, un tie no Jēkaba nama iemantos savas tiesas.
But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
18 Un Jēkaba nams būs uguns, un Jāzepa nams liesma, un Ēsava nams būs par rugājiem, un tie pret tiem iedegsies un tos aprīs, tā ka Ēsava namam neviens neatliks, jo Tas Kungs to ir runājis.
And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be [any] remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken [it].
19 Un tie no dienas vidus iemantos Ēsava kalnus, un kas ielejā dzīvo, iemantos Fīlistus, un tie iemantos Efraīma lauku un Samarijas lauku, un Benjamins Gileādu.
And [they of] the south shall possess the mount 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 Un tie aizvestie no Israēla bērnu kara spēka iemantos to, kas Kanaāniešiem piederēja līdz Sareptai, un tie aizvestie no Jeruzālemes, kas ir Sefaradā, iemantos tās pilsētas pret dienvidiem.
And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel [shall possess] that of the Canaanites, [even] to Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which [is] in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the south.
21 Un pestītāji celsies uz Ciānas kalna, tiesāt Ēsava kalnus, un valstība piederēs Tam Kungam.
And saviors shall come upon mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD'S.
