Obadiah 1
1 This is a message that Yahweh our God gave to me, Obadiah, about the Edom [people-group]. Yahweh our God has told me this about [the people of] Edom: “I, Yahweh, have sent a messenger to other nations, telling them to prepare to go and attack Edom.”
Oubadaia da amo ba: la: lusu olelei. Amo ganodini, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da Idome dunu fi ilima doaga: mu hou olelei. Hina Gode da Idome Fi ilima se imunu sia: i Hina Gode da Ea sia: ne iasu dunu fifi asi gala dunu huluane ilima asunasi dagoi. Amola ninia da Ea sia: ne iasu nabi dagoi. “Momagema! Ninia da Idome fi doagala: musa: ahoa: di!”
2 And Yahweh says this to the people of Edom: “I will soon cause you to become the weakest and most despised nation [on the earth].
Hina Gode da Idome fi ilima amane sia: sa, “Na dilia nimi hou fonobonesimu, amola dunu huluane ilia da dilima higale ba: mu.
3 Your [capital city] is high in the rocky cliffs, and you are very proud; you think that you are safe from being attacked by your enemies [RHQ], but you [IDM] have deceived yourselves.
Dilila: gasa fi hou amoeawane dilila: ogogoi. Dilia bisili moilai bai bagade da igiga gagili sali amola goumia gadodafa gagui. Amaiba: le dilila: da amane sia: sa, ‘Nowa ea da ninia fi muguluma: bela: ? Hame mabu!’
4 And I tell you that even if [you had wings and] could fly higher than eagles fly, and if you could make your homes among the stars, I would bring you [crashing] down from there.
Be Na da dilima sia: sa, ‘Dilia da buhiba ea hou agoane, ifa balu da: iya gado mu amola gasumuni amo gadenene gagula heda: i sia: sa, Be amomane dili da Na hiougili sanasimu amola mugululi fasimu.
5 When thieves break into someone’s house during the night, they certainly [RHQ] steal only the things that they want. And people who pick grapes always [RHQ] leave a few grapes on the vines. But your country will be completely destroyed!
Amola wamolasu dunu da gasia misini, liligi hi hanai amo fawane ladisa, be oda ea hame hanai amo da yolesisa. Amola dunu huluane ilia waini fage hawa: ladisia, ilia oda yolesisa. Be dilima ha lai dunu da dili huluane gugunufinisi dagoi.
6 Everything that is valuable will be taken away. [Your enemies] will find and take away even the valuable things that you have hidden.
Iso egaga fi dilia! Dilia muni amola liligi noga: i huluane da enoga gegene lai dagoi.
7 All (your allies/nations who promised to help you) will turn against you, and they will force you to leave your country/land. Those with whom you have peace now will trick/deceive you and defeat you. Those who eat meals with you now are planning to trap you, and [then they will say to you], ‘You are not [RHQ] as clever [as you thought you were]!’
Amola osobo bagade fi dunu ilia dilima saga hamoi amoeawane dilima ogogoi. Ilia da dilia sogega dili sefasi dagoi. Amola dilima olofoiwane esalu dunu da wali dilima osa: le heda: i dagoi. Amola dilia saga hamoi, ali gilisili ha: i nasu, ilia da dili famusa: sanigei agoane gala. Ilia da dili hou amane olelesa, ‘Ilia musa: bagade dawa: su hou da habila: ?’
8 I, Yahweh, declare that at the time that I destroy Edom, I will punish the men who live in those cliffs who [thought that they] were wise.
Na da eso afaega, Idome fi se nabasimu. Amo esoga Na da ilia bagade dawa: su dunu fane legemu Amola Na da ilia dawa: lai hou amo huluane dogale fasimu.
9 The soldiers from Teman [town] will become terrified; all you people who are descendants of Esau will be (wiped out/killed).
Dima: ne osobo dogone fi da gegesu bagade dawa: , be amomane ilia da beda: mu. Amola Idome ea dadi gagui dunu huluane bogogia: i dagoi ba: mu.”
10 You acted cruel in a cruel way toward your relatives who are descendants of Jacob, [the twin brother of your ancestor Esau]. So now you will be disgraced forever; you will be completely destroyed.
Hina Gode da bu agoane sia: sa, “Dilia da dilia sosogo fi dunu (Ya: igobe egaga fi dunu) amo ilia liligi wamolale, ili medole legeiba: le, dilia da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu. Amola eno dunu da eso huluane mae fisili dili higale ba: mu.
11 Foreigners entered the gates of Jerusalem and (cast lots/threw small stones that were marked) to decide what valuable things they would take away; but you were as bad as those foreigners, because you just stood there [and did not help the Israelis].
Ga fi dunu da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade logo ga: i fi, amola Yelusaleme dunu fi ilia muni lale, momogili ilia fi dunuma sagoi. Be dilia da Yelusaleme fi ilima mae asigili, udigili la: ididili lelebe ba: i.
12 You should not have (gloated/been happy) about the disaster that the Israelis were experiencing. You should not have been happy when their towns were ruined. You should not have made fun [of them] when they were suffering.
Dilia da dilia diolalali Yuda soge ganodini esala se nababeba: le hidale habosesele ba: i. Amo da defea hame galebe. Ilia da gugunufinisi ba: loba, dilia da ilima asigimu da defea galu. Amola ilia da se nababeba: le, hame ofesega: mu da defea galu.
13 They are my people, so you should not have entered their [city] gates when they were experiencing those disasters and you should not have laughed at them. And you should not have taken away their [valuable] possessions.
Dilia da Na fi dunu ilia se nabasu amoma asigimu da defea galu, amola amo se nabasu babeba: le hahawane hame hamomu galu. Amola dilia da ilia liligi bagade agui da amo esoga hame wamolamu galu.
14 You should not have stood at crossroads to catch those who were [trying to] escape. You should not have [captured them and] put them into the hands of [their enemies] when they were experiencing those disasters.”
Na fi dunu da ilia ha lai ilima beda: iba: le, hobea: i dagoi. Be dilia da logo sasagulufai dogoa amo dunu gagumusa: lelu. Amo da defea hame galebe. Na fi dunu da se bagade nabi. Be dilia da mae asigili, ili afugili ilia ha lai dunuma i dagoi. Amo amola da defea hame gala.
15 “There will soon be the time when I, Yahweh, will judge [and punish] all the nations. And you [people of Edom] will experience the same [disasters] that you caused [others to experience]. The same evil things that you have done to others will happen to you.
Eso da gadenesa. Na da osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane ilima fofada: mu eso da gadenesa. Idome! Dia adi hamoi amo defele, amo hou dima doaga: mu. Dia adi i amo defele dima doaga: mu.
16 [My people in Jerusalem have been punished] because I was very angry with them. [It is as though] [MET] they drank [a cup of very bitter liquid] on Zion, my sacred hill. But [I] will punish [MET] all the other nations even more severely, and cause them to disappear completely.
Fedege agoane, Na fi dunu ilia Na sema agolo da: iya, gamogai hano faigeleiga nawene, se iasu bagadedafa lai dagoi. Be dunu fifilai ilima sisiga: le diala, ilia se iasu da Na fi ilia se nabi amo bagade baligimu. Ilia da se nabasu faigelei nanu, amasea ilia da alalolesili, bu hamedafa ba: mu.
17 But some [people in Jerusalem will escape], and Jerusalem will become a very holy/sacred place. Then the descendants of Jacob will [conquer and] possess again the land that truly belongs to them.
Be dunu mogili da Saione Goumia gaga: i dagoi ba: mu. Amola amo goumi da hadigi sogebi agoane ba: mu. Isala: ili soge da Ya: igobe ea fi ili gaguma: ne ilegei dagoi. Amaiba: le, ilia da amo soge lalegagumu.
18 The descendants [MTY] of Jacob and his son Joseph will be like [MET] a fire, and the people [MTY] of Edom will be like [MET] stubble that will be completely burned in that fire. Not one person will remain alive. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.”
Amola Ya: igobe ea fi amola Yousefe ea fi ilia nimi da lalu nei agoai ba: mu. Ilia da Iso ea fi amo bisili gegesea, da samaso bioi ulagi nebe agoane nemu. Amola Iso egaga fi dunu afae esalebe da hamedafa ba: mu. Na, Hina Gode, Na da sia: i dagoi.
19 The Israeli people [who live] in the southern desert are the ones who will capture Edom. And those [who live in] the western foothills will capture the Phoenicia [region] and the areas of Ephraim and Samaria. And people of the tribe of Benjamin will conquer the Gilead [region].
Yuda fi gagoe (south) esala ilia da Idome soge amo ganodini fimu. Amola Yuda fi goumi soge guma: goe esala amo da Filisidia soge lamu. Isala: ili dunu da gegene Ifala: ime soge amola Samelia soge lamu. Bediamini fi da gegene, Gilia: de soge lamu.
20 Those who were (exiled in/forced to go to) [Babylon] will [return to their land] [and] capture the Phoenicia [region] as far north as Zarephath [on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea]. People of Jerusalem who were captured and taken to Sardis, [the capital city of the Lydia region], will capture the towns in the southern desert.
La: di gagoe (north) Isala: ili fi ilia mugululi asi dunu huluane, ilia da sinidigili, Founisia fi amo hasalasili, gagoe (north) asili, ilia soge amogainini Sa: lefa: de moilai amo ganodini fifi lamu. Amola Yelusaleme mugululi asi dunu, Sadisi moilai bai bagade esala yolesili, gegene amola ga (south) Yuda moilale gagai huluane gegene lamu.
21 The army of Jerusalem will attack Edom and conquer it, and Yahweh will be their king.
Amola Yelusaleme dunu amo da hasalasu dawa: , ilia da Idome fi bisili gegena masunu amo soge amo ilia da lamu, amola ilia amo ouligimu. Amola Hina Gode Hisu da ilia Hina Bagade hamone, ili ouligimu. Sia: ama dagoi
