Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1This is the vision of Obadiah: This is what the Lord GOD says about Edom— We have heard a message from the LORD; an envoy has been sent among the nations to say, “Rise up, and let us go to battle against her!”—
1ΟΡΑΣΙΣ Ὀβδιού. Τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τῇ Ἰδουμαίᾳ· ἀκοὴν ἤκουσα παρὰ Κυρίου, καὶ περιοχὴν εἰς τὰ ἔθνη ἐξαπέστειλεν. ἀνάστητε, καὶ ἐξαναστῶμεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτὴν εἰς πόλεμον.
2“Behold, I will make you small among the nations; you will be deeply despised.
2ἰδοὺ ὀλιγοστὸν δέδωκά σε ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, ἠτιμωμένος εἶ σὺ σφόδρα.
3The pride of your heart has deceived you, O dwellers in the clefts of the rocks whose habitation is the heights, who say in your heart, ‘Who can bring me down to the ground?’
3ὑπερηφανία τῆς καρδίας σου ἐπῇρέ σε κατασκηνοῦντα ἐν ταῖς ὀπαῖς τῶν πετρῶν, ὑψῶν κατοικίαν αὐτοῦ, λέγων ἐν καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ· τίς κατάξει με ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν;
4Though you soar like the eagle and make your nest among the stars, even from there I will bring you down,” declares the LORD.
4ἐὰν μετεωρισθῇς ὡς ἀετὸς καὶ ἐὰν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ἄστρων θῇς νοσσιάν σου, ἐκεῖθεν κατάξω σε, λέγε Κύριος.
5“If thieves came to you, if robbers by night— oh, how you will be ruined— would they not steal only what they wanted? If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleanings?
5εἰ κλέπται εἰσῆλθον πρός σε ἢ λῃσταὶ νυκτός, ποῦ ἂν ἀπερρίφης; οὐκ ἂν ἔκλεψαν τὰ ἱκανὰ ἑαυτοῖς; καὶ εἰ τρυγηταὶ εἰσῆλθον πρὸς σέ, οὐκ ἂν ὑπελίποντο ἐπιφυλλίδα;
6But how Esau will be pillaged, his hidden treasures sought out!
6πῶς ἐξηρευνήθη Ἡσαῦ καὶ κατελήφθη τὰ κεκρυμμένα αὐτοῦ;
7All the men allied with you will drive you to the border; the men at peace with you will deceive and overpower you. Those who eat your bread will set a trap for you without your awareness of it.
7ἕως τῶν ὁρίων ἐξαπέστειλάν σε πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς διαθήκης σου, ἀντέστησάν σοι, ἠδυνάσθησαν πρός σε ἄνδρες εἰρηνικοί σου, ἔθηκαν ἔνεδρα ὑποκάτω σου, οὐκ ἔστι σύνεσις αὐτοῖς.
8In that day, declares the LORD, will I not destroy the wise men of Edom and the men of understanding in the mountains of Esau?
8ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, λέγει Κύριος, ἀπολῶ σοφοὺς ἐκ τῆς Ἰδουμαίας καὶ σύνεσιν ἐξ ὄρους Ἡσαῦ·
9Then your mighty men, O Teman, will be terrified, so that everyone in the mountains of Esau will be cut down in the slaughter.
9καὶ πτοηθήσονται οἱ μαχηταί σου οἱ ἐκ Θαιμάν, ὅπως ἐξαρθῇ ἄνθρωπος ἐξ ὄρους Ἡσαῦ
10Because of the violence against your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame and cut off forever.
10διὰ τὴν σφαγὴν καὶ τὴν ἀσέβειαν τὴν εἰς τὸν ἀδελφόν σου Ἰακώβ, καὶ καλύψει σε αἰσχύνη καὶ ἐξαρθήσῃ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. 11 Ἀφ᾿ ἧς ἡμέρας ἀντέστης ἐξεναντίας ἐν ἡμέραις αἰχμαλωτευόντων ἀλλογενῶν δύναμιν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀλλότριοι εἰσῆλθον εἰς πύλας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἔβαλον κλήρους, καὶ σὺ ἦς ὡς εἷς ἐξ αὐτῶν.
11On the day you stood aloof while strangers carried off his wealth and foreigners entered his gate and cast lots for Jerusalem, you were just like one of them.
no verse 11 in this text
12But you should not gloat in that day, your brother’s day of misfortune, nor rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction, nor boast proudly in the day of their distress.
12καὶ μὴ ἐπίδῃς ἡμέραν ἀδελφοῦ σου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἀλλοτρίων καὶ μὴ ἐπιχαρῇς ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰούδα ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἀπωλείας αὐτῶν καὶ μὴ μεγαλορρημονήσῃς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεως,
13You should not enter the gate of My people in the day of their disaster, nor gloat over their affliction in the day of their disaster, nor loot their wealth in the day of their disaster.
13μηδὲ εἰσέλθῃς εἰς πύλας λαῶν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ πόνων αὐτῶν, μηδὲ ἐπίδῃς καὶ σὺ τὴν συναγωγὴν αὐτῶν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ὀλέθρου αὐτῶν καὶ μὴ συνεπιθῇ ἐπὶ τὴν δύναμιν αὐτῶν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἀπωλείας αὐτῶν.
14Nor should you stand at the crossroads to cut off their fugitives, nor deliver up their survivors in the day of their distress.
14μηδὲ ἐπιστῇς ἐπὶ τὰς διεκβολὰς αὐτῶν τοῦ ἐξολοθρεῦσαι τοὺς ἀνασῳζομένους αὐτῶν, μηδὲ συγκλείσῃς τοὺς φεύγοντας ἐξ αὐτῶν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεως.
15For the Day of the LORD is near for all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you; your recompense will return upon your own head.
15διότι ἐγγὺς ἡμέρα Κυρίου ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη· ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησας, οὕτως ἔσται σοι· τὸ ἀνταπόδομά σου ἀνταποδοθήσεται εἰς κεφαλήν σου.
16For as you drank on My holy mountain, so all the nations will drink continually. They will drink and gulp it down; they will be as if they had never existed.
16διότι ὃν τρόπον ἔπιες ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος τὸ ἅγιόν μου, πίονται πάντα τὰ ἔθνη οἶνον· πίονται καὶ καταβήσονται καὶ ἔσονται καθὼς οὐχ ὑπάρχοντες. 17 Ἐν δὲ τῷ ὄρει Σιὼν ἔσται ἡ σωτηρία, καὶ ἔσται ἅγιον· καὶ κατακληρονομήσουσιν ὁ οἶκος Ἰακὼβ τοὺς κατακληρονομήσαντας αὐτούς.
17But on Mount Zion there will be deliverance, and it will be holy, and the house of Jacob will reclaim their possession.
no verse 17 in this text
18Then the house of Jacob will be a blazing fire, and the house of Joseph a burning flame; but the house of Esau will be stubble— Jacob will set it ablaze and consume it. Therefore no survivor will remain from the house of Esau.” For the LORD has spoken.
18καὶ ἔσται ὁ οἶκος Ἰακὼβ πῦρ, ὁ δὲ οἶκος Ἰωσὴφ φλόξ, ὁ δὲ οἶκος Ἡσαῦ εἰς καλάμην, καὶ ἐκκαυθήσονται εἰς αὐτοὺς καὶ καταφάγονται αὐτούς, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται πυροφόρος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Ἡσαῦ, διότι Κύριος ἐλάλησε.
19Those from the Negev will possess the mountains of Esau; those from the foothills will possess the land of the Philistines. They will occupy the fields of Ephraim and Samaria, and Benjamin will possess Gilead.
19καὶ κατακληρονομήσουσιν οἱ ἐν Ναγὲβ τὸ ὄρος τὸ Ἡσαῦ καὶ οἱ ἐν τῇ Σεφηλὰ τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους καὶ κατακληρονομήσουσι τὸ ὄρος Ἐφραὶμ καὶ τὸ πεδίον Σαμαρείας καὶ Βενιαμὶν καὶ τὴν Γαλααδῖτιν.
20And the exiles of this host of the Israelites will possess the land of the Canaanites as far as Zarephath; and the exiles from Jerusalem who are in Sepharad will possess the cities of the Negev.
20καὶ τῆς μετοικεσίας ἡ ἀρχὴ αὕτη· τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ γῆ τῶν Χαναναίων ἕως Σαρεπτῶν καὶ ἡ μετοικεσία Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἕως Ἐφραθά, καὶ κληρονομήσουσι τὰς πόλεις τοῦ Ναγέβ.
21The deliverers will ascend Mount Zion to rule over the mountains of Esau. And the kingdom will belong to the LORD.
21καὶ ἀναβήσονται ἀνασῳζόμενοι ἐξ ὄρους Σιὼν τοῦ ἐκδικῆσαι τὸ ὄρος Ἡσαῦ, καὶ ἔσται τῷ Κυρίῳ ἡ βασιλεία.
