The visionH2377 of ObadiahH5662. Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 concerning EdomH123; We have heardH8085 a rumourH8052 from the LORDH3068, and an ambassadorH6735 is sentH7971 among the heathenH1471, AriseH6965 ye, and let us rise upH6965 against her in battleH4421.
Behold, I have madeH5414 thee smallH6996 among the heathenH1471: thou art greatlyH3966 despisedH959.
The prideH2087 of thine heartH3820 hath deceivedH5377 thee, thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, whose habitationH3427 is highH4791; that saithH559 in his heartH3820, Who shall bring me downH3381 to the groundH776?
Though thou exaltH1361 thyself as the eagleH5404, and though thou setH7760 thy nestH7064 among the starsH3556, thence will I bring thee downH3381, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
If thievesH1590 cameH935 to thee, if robbersH7703 by nightH3915, (how art thou cut offH1820!) would they not have stolenH1589 till they had enoughH1767? if the grapegatherersH1219 cameH935 to thee, would they not leaveH7604 some grapesH5955? {some…: or, gleanings?}
How are the things of EsauH6215 searched outH2664! how are his hiddenH4710 things sought upH1158!
All the menH582 of thy confederacyH1285 have broughtH7971 thee even to the borderH1366: the menH582 that were at peaceH7965 with thee have deceivedH5377 thee, and prevailedH3201 against thee; they that eat thy breadH3899 have laidH7760 a woundH4204 under thee: there is none understandingH8394 in him. {that were…: Heb. of thy peace} {they…: Heb. the men of thy bread} {in him: or, of it}
Shall I not in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, even destroyH6 the wiseH2450 men out of EdomH123, and understandingH8394 out of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215?
And thy mightyH1368 men, O TemanH8487, shall be dismayedH2865, to the end that every oneH376 of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215 may be cut offH3772 by slaughterH6993.
For thy violenceH2555 against thy brotherH251 JacobH3290 shameH955 shall coverH3680 thee, and thou shalt be cut offH3772 for everH5769.
In the dayH3117 that thou stoodestH5975 on the other side, in the dayH3117 that the strangersH2114 carried away captiveH7617 his forcesH2428, and foreignersH5237 enteredH935 into his gatesH8179, and castH3032 lotsH1486 upon JerusalemH3389, even thou wast as oneH259 of them. {captive…: or, his substance}
But thou shouldest not have lookedH7200 on the dayH3117 of thy brotherH251 in the dayH3117 that he became a strangerH5235; neither shouldest thou have rejoicedH8055 over the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 in the dayH3117 of their destructionH6; neither shouldest thou have spokenH6310 proudlyH1431 in the dayH3117 of distressH6869. {spoken…: Heb. magnified thy mouth}
Thou shouldest not have enteredH935 into the gateH8179 of my peopleH5971 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343; yea, thou shouldest not have lookedH7200 on their afflictionH7451 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343, nor have laidH7971 hands on their substanceH2428 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343; {substance: or, forces}
Neither shouldest thou have stoodH5975 in the crosswayH6563, to cut offH3772 those of his that did escapeH6412; neither shouldest thou have delivered upH5462 those of his that did remainH8300 in the dayH3117 of distressH6869. {delivered up: or, shut up}
For the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138 upon all the heathenH1471: as thou hast doneH6213, it shall be doneH6213 unto thee: thy rewardH1576 shall returnH7725 upon thine own headH7218.
For as ye have drunkH8354 upon my holyH6944 mountainH2022, so shall all the heathenH1471 drinkH8354 continuallyH8548, yea, they shall drinkH8354, and they shall swallow downH3886, and they shall be as though they had notH3808 been. {swallow…: or, sup up}
That IG3165 should beG1519+G1511 the ministerG3011 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 toG1519 the GentilesG1484, ministeringG2418 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316, thatG2443 the offering upG4376 of the GentilesG1484 might beG1096 acceptableG2144, being sanctifiedG37 byG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {offering up: or, sacrificing}
ForG1063 beforeG4253 that certainG5100 cameG2064 fromG575 JamesG2385, he did eatG4906 withG3326 the GentilesG1484: butG1161 whenG3753 they were comeG2064, he withdrewG5288 andG2532 separatedG873 himselfG1438, fearingG5399 them which were ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061.
AndG2532 the otherG3062 JewsG2453 dissembledG4942 likewiseG2532 with himG846; insomuchG5620 that BarnabasG921 alsoG2532 was carried awayG4879 with theirG846 dissimulationG5272.
ButG235 whenG3753 I sawG1492 thatG3754 they walkedG3716 notG3756 uprightlyG3716 according toG4314 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098, I saidG2036 unto PeterG4074 beforeG1715 them allG3956, IfG1487 thouG4771, beingG5225 a JewG2453, livestG2198 after the manner of GentilesG1483, andG2532 notG3756 as do the JewsG2452, whyG5101 compellest thouG315 the GentilesG1484 to live as do the JewsG2450?
And it came to passH1961, that when IsaacH3327 was oldH2204, and his eyesH5869 were dimH3543, so that he could not seeH7200, he calledH7121 EsauH6215 his eldestH1419 sonH1121, and saidH559 unto him, My sonH1121: and he saidH559 unto him, Behold, here am I.
And he saidH559, Behold now, I am oldH2204, I knowH3045 not the dayH3117 of my deathH4194:
Now therefore takeH5375, I pray thee, thy weaponsH3627, thy quiverH8522 and thy bowH7198, and go outH3318 to the fieldH7704, and takeH6679 me some venisonH6718+H6720; {take: Heb. hunt}
And makeH6213 me savoury meatH4303, such asH834 I loveH157, and bringH935 it to me, that I may eatH398; that my soulH5315 may blessH1288 thee beforeH2962 I dieH4191.
And RebekahH7259 heardH8085 when IsaacH3327 spakeH1696 to EsauH6215 his sonH1121. And EsauH6215 wentH3212 to the fieldH7704 to huntH6679 for venisonH6718, and to bringH935 it.
And RebekahH7259 spakeH559 unto JacobH3290 her sonH1121, sayingH559, Behold, I heardH8085 thy fatherH1 speakH1696 unto EsauH6215 thy brotherH251, sayingH559,
BringH935 me venisonH6718, and makeH6213 me savoury meatH4303, that I may eatH398, and blessH1288 thee beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 beforeH6440 my deathH4194.
Now therefore, my sonH1121, obeyH8085 my voiceH6963 according to that whichH834 I commandH6680 thee.
GoH3212 now to the flockH6629, and fetchH3947 me from thence twoH8147 goodH2896 kidsH1423 of the goatsH5795; and I will makeH6213 them savoury meatH4303 for thy fatherH1, such as he lovethH157:
And thou shalt bringH935 it to thy fatherH1, that he may eatH398, and thatH834 he may blessH1288 thee beforeH6440 his deathH4194.
And JacobH3290 saidH559 to RebekahH7259 his motherH517, Behold, EsauH6215 my brotherH251 is a hairyH8163 manH376, and I am a smoothH2509 manH376:
My fatherH1 peradventure will feelH4959 me, and I shall seemH5869 to him as a deceiverH8591; and I shall bringH935 a curseH7045 upon me, and not a blessingH1293.
And his motherH517 saidH559 unto him, Upon me be thy curseH7045, my sonH1121: only obeyH8085 my voiceH6963, and goH3212 fetchH3947 me them.
And he wentH3212, and fetchedH3947, and broughtH935 them to his motherH517: and his motherH517 madeH6213 savoury meatH4303, such as his fatherH1 lovedH157.
And RebekahH7259 tookH3947 goodlyH2532 raimentH899 of her eldestH1419 sonH1121 EsauH6215, which were with her in the houseH1004, and put them uponH3847 JacobH3290 her youngerH6996 sonH1121: {goodly: Heb. desirable}
And she putH3847 the skinsH5785 of the kidsH1423 of the goatsH5795 upon his handsH3027, and upon the smoothH2513 of his neckH6677:
And she gaveH5414 the savoury meatH4303 and the breadH3899, which she had preparedH6213, into the handH3027 of her sonH1121 JacobH3290.
And he cameH935 unto his fatherH1, and saidH559, My fatherH1: and he saidH559, Here am I; who art thou, my sonH1121?
And JacobH3290 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, I am EsauH6215 thy firstbornH1060; I have doneH6213 according as thou badestH1696 me: ariseH6965, I pray thee, sitH3427 and eatH398 of my venisonH6718, that thy soulH5315 may blessH1288 me.
And IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto his sonH1121, How is it that thou hast foundH4672 it so quicklyH4116, my sonH1121? And he saidH559, Because the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 broughtH7136 it to meH6440. {to me: Heb. before me}
And IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto JacobH3290, Come nearH5066, I pray thee, that I may feelH4184 thee, my sonH1121, whether thou be my veryH2088 sonH1121 EsauH6215 or not.
And JacobH3290 went nearH5066 unto IsaacH3327 his fatherH1; and he feltH4959 him, and saidH559, The voiceH6963 is Jacob'sH3290 voiceH6963, but the handsH3027 are the handsH3027 of EsauH6215.
And he discernedH5234 him not, because his handsH3027 were hairyH8163, as his brotherH251 Esau'sH6215 handsH3027: so he blessedH1288 him.
And he saidH559, Art thou my very sonH1121 EsauH6215? And he saidH559, I am.
And he saidH559, Bring it nearH5066 to me, and I will eatH398 of my son'sH1121 venisonH6718, that my soulH5315 may blessH1288 thee. And he brought it nearH5066 to him, and he did eatH398: and he broughtH935 him wineH3196, and he drankH8354.
And his fatherH1 IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto him, Come nearH5066 now, and kissH5401 me, my sonH1121.
And he came nearH5066, and kissedH5401 him: and he smelledH7306 the smellH7381 of his raimentH899, and blessedH1288 him, and saidH559, SeeH7200, the smellH7381 of my sonH1121 is as the smellH7381 of a fieldH7704 which the LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288:
Therefore GodH430 giveH5414 thee of the dewH2919 of heavenH8064, and the fatnessH4924 of the earthH776, and plentyH7230 of cornH1715 and wineH8492:
Let peopleH5971 serveH5647 thee, and nationsH3816 bow downH7812 to thee: beH1933 lordH1376 over thy brethrenH251, and let thy mother'sH517 sonsH1121 bow downH7812 to thee: cursedH779 be every one that cursethH779 thee, and blessedH1288 be he that blessethH1288 thee.
And it came to pass, as soon as IsaacH3327 had made an endH3615 of blessingH1288 JacobH3290, and JacobH3290 was yetH389 scarceH3318 gone outH3318 from the presenceH6440 of IsaacH3327 his fatherH1, that EsauH6215 his brotherH251 came inH935 from his huntingH6718.
And he also had madeH6213 savoury meatH4303, and brought itH935 unto his fatherH1, and saidH559 unto his fatherH1, Let my fatherH1 ariseH6965, and eatH398 of his son'sH1121 venisonH6718, that thy soulH5315 may blessH1288 me.
And IsaacH3327 his fatherH1 saidH559 unto him, Who art thou? And he saidH559, I am thy sonH1121, thy firstbornH1060 EsauH6215.
And IsaacH3327 trembledH2729 veryH1419 exceedinglyH3966+H2731, and saidH559, Who? whereH645 is he that hath takenH6679 venisonH6718, and broughtH935 it me, and I have eatenH398 of all before thou camestH935, and have blessedH1288 him? yea, and he shall be blessedH1288. {trembled…: Heb. trembled with a great trembling greatly} {taken: Heb. hunted}
And when EsauH6215 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his fatherH1, he criedH6817 with a greatH1419 and exceedingH3966 bitterH4751 cryH6818, and saidH559 unto his fatherH1, BlessH1288 me, even me also, O my fatherH1.
And he saidH559, Thy brotherH251 cameH935 with subtiltyH4820, and hath taken awayH3947 thy blessingH1293.
And he saidH559, Is not he rightlyH3588 namedH7121+H8034 JacobH3290? for he hath supplanted meH6117 theseH2088 two timesH6471: he took awayH3947 my birthrightH1062; and, behold, now he hath taken awayH3947 my blessingH1293. And he saidH559, Hast thou not reservedH680 a blessingH1293 for me? {Jacob: that is, A supplanter}
And IsaacH3327 answeredH6030 and saidH559 unto EsauH6215, Behold, I have madeH7760 him thy lordH1376, and all his brethrenH251 have I givenH5414 to him for servantsH5650; and with cornH1715 and wineH8492 have I sustainedH5564 him: and what shall I doH6213 nowH645 unto thee, my sonH1121? {sustained: or, supported}
And EsauH6215 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, Hast thou but oneH259 blessingH1293, my fatherH1? blessH1288 me, even me also, O my fatherH1. And EsauH6215 lifted upH5375 his voiceH6963, and weptH1058.
And IsaacH3327 his fatherH1 answeredH6030 and saidH559 unto him, Behold, thy dwellingH4186 shall be the fatnessH4924 of the earthH776, and of the dewH2919 of heavenH8064 from aboveH5920; {the fatness: or, of the fatness}
And by thy swordH2719 shalt thou liveH2421, and shalt serveH5647 thy brotherH251; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominionH7300, that thou shalt breakH6561 his yokeH5923 from off thy neckH6677.
And EsauH6215 hatedH7852 JacobH3290 becauseH5921 of the blessingH1293 wherewithH834 his fatherH1 blessed himH1288: and EsauH6215 saidH559 in his heartH3820, The daysH3117 of mourningH60 for my fatherH1 are at handH7126; then will I slayH2026 my brotherH251 JacobH3290.
And these wordsH1697 of EsauH6215 her elderH1419 sonH1121 were toldH5046 to RebekahH7259: and she sentH7971 and calledH7121 JacobH3290 her youngerH6996 sonH1121, and saidH559 unto him, Behold, thy brotherH251 EsauH6215, as touching thee, doth comfortH5162 himself, purposing to killH2026 thee.
Now therefore, my sonH1121, obeyH8085 my voiceH6963; and ariseH6965, fleeH1272 thou to LabanH3837 my brotherH251 to HaranH2771;
And tarryH3427 with him a fewH259 daysH3117, untilH834 thy brother'sH251 furyH2534 turn awayH7725;
Until thy brother'sH251 angerH639 turn awayH7725 from thee, and he forgetH7911 that which thou hast doneH6213 to him: then I will sendH7971, and fetchH3947 thee from thence: whyH4100 should I be deprivedH7921 also of you bothH8147 in oneH259 dayH3117?
And RebekahH7259 saidH559 to IsaacH3327, I am wearyH6973 of my lifeH2416 becauseH6440 of the daughtersH1323 of HethH2845: if JacobH3290 takeH3947 a wifeH802 of the daughtersH1323 of HethH2845, such as these which are of the daughtersH1323 of the landH776, what goodH4100 shall my lifeH2416 do me?
And EsauH6215 hatedH7852 JacobH3290 becauseH5921 of the blessingH1293 wherewithH834 his fatherH1 blessed himH1288: and EsauH6215 saidH559 in his heartH3820, The daysH3117 of mourningH60 for my fatherH1 are at handH7126; then will I slayH2026 my brotherH251 JacobH3290.
In the dayH3117 that thou stoodestH5975 on the other side, in the dayH3117 that the strangersH2114 carried away captiveH7617 his forcesH2428, and foreignersH5237 enteredH935 into his gatesH8179, and castH3032 lotsH1486 upon JerusalemH3389, even thou wast as oneH259 of them. {captive…: or, his substance}
But thou shouldest not have lookedH7200 on the dayH3117 of thy brotherH251 in the dayH3117 that he became a strangerH5235; neither shouldest thou have rejoicedH8055 over the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 in the dayH3117 of their destructionH6; neither shouldest thou have spokenH6310 proudlyH1431 in the dayH3117 of distressH6869. {spoken…: Heb. magnified thy mouth}
Thou shouldest not have enteredH935 into the gateH8179 of my peopleH5971 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343; yea, thou shouldest not have lookedH7200 on their afflictionH7451 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343, nor have laidH7971 hands on their substanceH2428 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343; {substance: or, forces}
Neither shouldest thou have stoodH5975 in the crosswayH6563, to cut offH3772 those of his that did escapeH6412; neither shouldest thou have delivered upH5462 those of his that did remainH8300 in the dayH3117 of distressH6869. {delivered up: or, shut up}
