Obadiah 1:1-5

Obadiah 1:1-5

[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  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,  is high;  that saith  in his heart,  Who shall bring me down  to the ground?  [4] Though thou exalt  thyself as the eagle,  and though thou set  thy nest  among the stars,  thence will I bring thee down,  saith  the LORD.  [5] If thieves  came  to thee, if robbers  by night,  (how art thou cut off!)  would they not have stolen  till they had enough?  if the grapegatherers  came  to thee, would they not leave  some grapes?
