New Testament

Obadiah 1:1-6 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

1. This is the vision of Obadiah. This is what the Lord GOD says about Edom: We heard a report from the Lord. A messenger was sent to the nations. He said, “Let’s go fight against Edom.”

2. “Edom, I will make you the smallest nation. Everyone will hate you very much.

3. Your pride has fooled you. You live in those caves high on the cliff. Your home is high in the hills. So you say to yourself, ‘No one can bring me to the ground.’”

4. This is what the Lord says: “Even though you fly high like the eagle and put your nest among the stars, I will bring you down from there.

5. You really will be ruined! Thieves will come to you. Robbers will come in the night, and they will take all they want. When workers gather grapes in your vineyards, they will leave a few grapes behind.

6. But the enemy will search hard for Esau’s hidden treasures, and they will find them all.
