Obadiah 1-3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

Thus says the Lord God concerning Edom:
We have heard a report from the Lord,
    and a messenger has been sent among the nations:
‘Rise up! Let us rise against it for battle!’
² I will surely make you least among the nations;
    you shall be utterly despised.
³ Your proud heart has deceived you,
    you that live in the clefts of the rock,^[a]
    whose dwelling is in the heights.
You say in your heart,
    ‘Who will bring me down to the ground?’
