< Obadiah 1 >

1 The vision of Obadiah. The Lord Yahweh says this concerning Edom: We have heard a report from Yahweh and an ambassador has been sent among the nations, saying, “Rise up! Let us rise up against her for battle!”
Ty aroñaro’ i Obadià: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, Talè amy Edome: Nahajanjiñe entañe boak’ amy Iehovà zahay, le fa nampihitrifeñe amo kilakila’ ondatio ty sorotà, nanao ty hoe: Miongaha, antao hitroatse hihotakotake.
2 Behold, I will make you small among the nations, you will be greatly despised.
Inao te hafotsako ho kede amo fifeheañeo rehe; ho vata’e mavoeñe.
3 The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rock, in your lofty home; who say in your heart, “Who will bring me down to the ground?”
Fa namañahy azo ty firengevohan’arofo’o, ihe mpimoneñe an-tseratseram-bato ao; an-kaboañe ey ty fimoneña’o ihe mitsakore ty hoe añ’arofo ao: Ia ty hanjotso ahy mb’an-tane mb’eo?
4 Though you soar high like the eagle and though your nest is set among the stars, I will bring you down from there, says Yahweh.
Aa ndra t’ie mizonjoñe mb’añ’abo ey hirae’o am-bantio, naho ajado’o amo vasiañeo eñe ty akiba’o, mbe hazotsoko boak’ ey, hoe t’Iehovà.
5 If thieves came to you, if robbers came by night—how you will be ruined!—would they not steal only as much as they needed? If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave the gleanings?
Ie nivotraha’ ty mpampikametse, naho ty malaso an-kaleñe — akore ty fandrotsahañe anahareo— tsy ho nampikametse am-para’ t’ie nietsake hao? Aa naho nivotrak’ ama’o ty mpanontoñe valoboke, tsy ho nenga’e hao ty ho tsindroheñe?
6 How Esau has been ransacked, his hidden treasures will be searched out!
Akore ty fivolosañe i Esave, ty fikodebeañe o vara nakafi’eo.
7 All the men of your alliance will send you on your way to the border. The men who were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you. They who eat your bread have set a trap under you. There is no understanding in him.
Fa nanese azo pak’ añ’efe-tane eo o mpirimboñ’ ama’oo; nifañahie’ o nifampilongo ama’oo vaho nahagioke; fa nampipoke fandrik’ ambane’o ao o mpitrao-pikama ama’oo; (tsy ama’e ty hilala!)
8 “Will I not on that day,” says Yahweh, “destroy the wise men from Edom and understanding out of the mountain of Esau?
Ie amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà, tsy ho mongoreko Edome ao hao o mahihitseo naho am-bohi’ Esave ty faharendrehañe?
9 Your mighty men will be dismayed, Teman, so that every man may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.
Hiroreke o fanalolahi’oo ry Temane, amy te ho fonga haitoañe am-pizamanañe am-bohi’ i Esave eo ondatio.
10 Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame, and you will be cut off forever.
Hañoloñe azo ty fisalarañe ty amy nampisoaña’o an-drahalahi’o Iakobey, vaho haitoañe zafe-zanake rehe.
11 On the day you stood aloof, on the day strangers carried away his wealth, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots for Jerusalem, you were like one of them.
Ihe nijagarodoñe eo amy andro zay, amy andro nendese’ o ambahinio mb’eo o vara’eoy naho nizilike an-dalambei’e mb’eo o alik’ama’oo, vaho nanoe’ iereo tsatopiso t’Ierosalaime —ihe nimpiama’ iareo.
12 But do not gloat over your brother's day, in the day of his misfortune, and do not rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction; do not boast in the day of their distress.
Ho nisoa t’ie tsy nisamba an-drahalahi’o amy andron-kekoheko’ey, tsy ho nirebeke amy andro naha-rotsake o ana’ Iehodaoy; mbore tsy nimete ty nisaontsie’o añ’ebotsebotse amy andron-kankàñey.
13 Do not enter my people's gate in the day of their calamity; do not gloat over their affliction in the day of their disaster, do not loot their wealth in the day of their ruin.
Tsy nimete ty nimoaha’o an-dalambei’ ondatikoo amy andron-kekoheko’ iareoy; Eka, tsy ho nisambà’o ty fisotria’e amy andron-kankà’ iareoy, ndra nampipao-pitàñe amo fanaña’ iareoo amy andro nitarañen-doza’ iareoy.
14 Do not stand at the crossroads to cut down his fugitives, and do not deliver up his survivors in the day of distress.
Tsy nimete ty nijohaña’o am-pitsileañe eo hamonoa’o ze nipoliotse mb’eo; naho tsy ho nasese’o o sehanga’eo amy andron-kasotriañey.
15 For the day of Yahweh is near upon all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you; your deeds will return on your own head.
Fa mitotok’ amo kilakila’ ondatio ty andro’ Iehovà: hambañe amo sata’oo ty hanoeñe ama’o. habalik’ añ’ambone’o eo o fitoloña’oo
16 For as you have drunk on my holy mountain, so will all the nations drink continually. They will drink and swallow and it will be as though they had never existed.
Fa manahake ty ninoma’ areo amy vohiko miavakey, ty hinoma’ o ambahinio nainai’e; ie hinoñe naho higenoke, vaho hanahake te mbe lia’e tsy teo.
17 But in Mount Zion there will be those that escape and it will be holy; and the house of Jacob shall possess their own possessions.
F’ie ambohi’ i Tsione ao ty nahapoliotse, ie ho miavake; vaho ho fanaña’ Iakobe o vara’ iareoo.
18 The house of Jacob will be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau will be stubble, and they will burn them, and consume them. There will be no survivors to the house of Esau, for Yahweh has spoken it.”
Le ho afo ty anjomba’ Iakobe, naho lel’afo ty anjomba’ Iosefe, naho ho ahetse ty anjomba’ i Esave, le ho viañe’ iereo ty ao, hamorototo iareo, vaho tsy hengañe honka’e ty añ’anjomba’ i Esave ao; fa nitsara t’Iehovà.
19 Those from the Negev will possess the mount of Esau and those of the Shepelah will possess the land of the Philistines. They will possess the land of Ephraim and the land of Samaria; and Benjamin will possess Gilead.
Ho a o tatimoo ty vohi’ i Esave, naho i monto’ o nte-Pilisty ambane eio, ho fanaña’ iareo ty tete’ i Efraime, naho ty tonda’ i Somerone, vaho ho fanaña’ i Beniamine t’i Gilade.
20 The exiles of this host of the people of Israel will possess the land of Canaan as far as Zarephath. The exiles of Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will possess the cities of the Negev.
Ho fanaña’ o nirohizañe amy valobohò’ o nte-­Israeleoy ty a o nte-Kenàneo, pak’e Tsakrefate añe; vaho ho fanaña’ o mpirohi’ Ierosalaime e Sefaradeo o rova atimoo.
21 Deliverers will go up to Mount Zion to rule over the hill country of Esau, and the kingdom will belong to Yahweh.
Homb’an-kaboa’ i Tsione mb’eo o mpandrombakeo hizaka ty vohi’ i Esave; vaho ho a Iehovà i fifeheañey.
