Obadiah 1-3
Names of God Bible
Edom’s Fall(A)
1 This is the vision of Obadiah.
This is what Adonay Yahweh says about Edom:
We have heard a message from Yahweh.
A messenger was sent among the nations to say,
“Get ready! Let’s go to war against Edom.”
2 “Edom, I will make you the smallest of nations.
Others will despise you.
3 Your arrogance has deceived you.
You live on rocky cliffs.
You make your home up high.
You say to yourself,
‘No one can bring me down to earth.’
Obadiah 1-3
King James Version
1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord God concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.
2 Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.
3 The pride of thine 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?
