俄巴底亚书
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
1 俄巴底亚看到的异象。
耶和华惩罚以东
论到以东，
主耶和华这样说：
“我们从耶和华那里听到消息，
有位使者被派到各国，说，
‘来！我们去攻打以东吧！’”
2 耶和华对以东说：
“我要让你成为列国中最弱小的国家，
使你饱受藐视。
3 你住在悬崖峭壁间，
住在高山上，
自以为谁也不能把你拉下来，
但你的骄傲欺骗了你。
4 即使你如鹰高飞，
在星辰间筑巢，
我也必把你拉下来。
这是耶和华说的。
5 “盗贼深夜洗劫你的家，
不会洗劫一空；
人们摘葡萄，不会摘光；
但你会被彻底毁灭！
6 以扫[a]要被洗劫一空，
他藏的珍宝要被搜去。
7 你的盟友将你逐出家园；
你的朋友欺骗你，战胜你；
你的知己设陷阱害你，
你却懵然不知。”
8 耶和华说：“到那天，
我要毁灭以东的智者，
除掉以扫山上的明哲。
9 提幔的勇士必惊慌失措，
以扫山上的人尽遭杀戮。
惩罚以东的原因
10 “因你曾残暴地对待同胞兄弟雅各，
你必蒙羞，永遭毁灭。
11 外族人掠夺雅各的财物，
攻入耶路撒冷抽签分赃时，
你竟然袖手旁观，
就像他们的同伙一样。
12 你的亲族遭难之日，
你不该幸灾乐祸；
犹大人被灭的日子，
你不该兴高采烈；
他们遭难的日子，
你不该口出狂言；
13 我子民遭难的日子，
你不该闯进他们的城；
他们遭难的日子，
你不该幸灾乐祸；
他们遭难的日子，
你不该趁火打劫；
14 你不该站在路口截杀那些逃亡者；
他们遭难的日子，
你不该把幸存者交给仇敌。
15 “耶和华惩罚万国的日子近了。
必按你的所作所为报应你，
你的恶行必落到自己头上。
16 你们犹大人在我的圣山上怎样饱饮愤怒，
万国也要照样饮，
且要大口吞下，
直到他们完全消逝。
以色列的复兴
17 “然而，锡安山必成为避难所，
成为圣地。
雅各家必得到自己的产业。
18 雅各家将成为火，
约瑟家将成为烈焰，
以扫家将成为碎秸，
被火焚烧、吞噬，无一人逃脱。
这是耶和华说的。
19 “南地的人将占领以扫山；
丘陵的人将占领非利士，
夺取以法莲和撒玛利亚；
便雅悯人将占领基列。
20 被掳的以色列人将返回家园，
占领远至撒勒法一带的土地；
从耶路撒冷被掳到西法拉的人将占领南地各城。
21 拯救者必登上锡安山，
统治以扫山，
耶和华必做王掌权。”

成為聖地。

Obadiah
New Century Version
The Lord Will Punish the Edomites
1 This is the vision of Obadiah.
This is what the Lord God says about Edom:[a]
We have heard a message from the Lord.
A messenger has been sent among the nations, saying,
“Attack! Let’s go attack Edom!”
The Lord Speaks to the Edomites
2 “Soon I will make you the smallest of nations.
You will be greatly hated by everyone.
3 Your pride has fooled you,
you who live in the hollow places of the cliff.
Your home is up high,
you who say to yourself,
‘No one can bring me down to the ground.’
4 Even if you fly high like the eagle
and make your nest among the stars,
I will bring you down from there,” says the Lord.
5 “You will really be ruined!
If thieves came to you,
if robbers came by night,
they would steal only enough for themselves.
If workers came and picked the grapes from your vines,
they would leave a few behind.
6 But you, Edom, will really lose everything!
People will find all your hidden treasures!
7 All the people who are your friends
will force you out of the land.
The people who are at peace with you
will trick you and defeat you.
Those who eat your bread with you now
are planning a trap for you,
and you will not notice it.”
8 The Lord says, “On that day
I will surely destroy the wise people from Edom,
and those with understanding from the mountains of Edom.
9 Then, city of Teman, your best warriors will be afraid,
and everyone from the mountains of Edom will be killed.
10 You did violence to your relatives, the Israelites,
so you will be covered with shame
and destroyed forever.
11 You stood aside without helping
while strangers carried Israel’s treasures away.
When foreigners entered Israel’s city gate
and threw lots to decide what part of Jerusalem they would take,
you were like one of them.
Commands That Edom Broke
12 “Edom, do not laugh at your brother Israel in his time of trouble
or be happy about the people of Judah when they are destroyed.
Do not brag when cruel things are done to them.
13 Do not enter the city gate of my people
in their time of trouble
or laugh at their problems
in their time of trouble.
Do not take their treasures
in their time of trouble.
14 Do not stand at the crossroads
to destroy those who are trying to escape.
Do not capture those who escape alive and turn them over to their enemy
in their time of trouble.
The Nations Will Be Judged
15 “The Lord’s day of judging is coming soon
to all the nations.
The same evil things you did to other people
will happen to you;
they will come back upon your own head.
16 Because you drank in my Temple,
all the nations will drink on and on.
They will drink and drink
until they disappear.
17 But on Mount Zion some will escape the judgment,
and it will be a holy place.
The people of Jacob will take back their land
from those who took it from them.
18 The people of Jacob will be like a fire
and the people of Joseph[b] like a flame.
But the people of Esau[c] will be like dry stalks.
The people of Jacob will set them on fire and burn them up.
There will be no one left of the people of Esau.”
This will happen because the Lord has said it.
19 Then God’s people will regain southern Judah from Edom;
they will take back the mountains of Edom.
They will take back the western hills
from the Philistines.
They will regain the lands of Ephraim and Samaria,
and Benjamin will take over Gilead.
20 People from Israel who once were forced to leave their homes
will take the land of the Canaanites,
all the way to Zarephath.
People from Judah who once were forced to leave Jerusalem and live in Sepharad
will take back the cities of southern Judah.
21 Powerful warriors will go up on Mount Zion,
where they will rule the people living on Edom’s mountains.
And the kingdom will belong to the Lord.
