KJV 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 ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.

VULC ¹ Visio Abdiæ. [Hæc dicit Dominus Deus ad Edom :
Auditum audivimus a Domino,
et legatum ad gentes misit :
surgite, et consurgamus adversus eum in prælium.

WLC ¹ חֲז֖וֹן עֹֽבַדְיָ֑ה כֹּֽה־ אָמַר֩ אֲדֹנָ֨י יְהוִ֜ה לֶאֱד֗וֹם שְׁמוּעָ֨ה שָׁמַ֜עְנוּ מֵאֵ֤ת יְהוָה֙ וְצִיר֙ בַּגּוֹיִ֣ם שֻׁלָּ֔ח ק֛וּמוּ וְנָק֥וּמָה עָלֶיהָ לַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃

KJV ² Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.

VULC ² Ecce parvulum dedi te in gentibus :
contemptibilis tu es valde.

WLC ² הִנֵּ֥ה קָטֹ֛ן נְתַתִּ֖יךָ בַּגּוֹיִ֑ם בָּז֥וּי אַתָּ֖ה מְאֹֽד׃

KJV ³ The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?

VULC ³ Superbia cordis tui extulit te,
habitantem in scissuris petrarum,
exaltantem solium tuum ;
qui dicis in corde tuo :
Quis detrahet me in terram ?

WLC ³ זְד֤וֹן לִבְּךָ֙ הִשִּׁיאֶ֔ךָ שֹׁכְנִ֥י בְחַגְוֵי־ סֶּ֖לַע מְר֣וֹם שִׁבְתּ֑וֹ אֹמֵ֣ר בְּלִבּ֔וֹ מִ֥י יוֹרִדֵ֖נִי אָֽרֶץ׃

KJV 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.

VULC ⁴ Si exaltatus fueris ut aquila,
et si inter sidera posueris nidum tuum,
inde detraham te, dicit Dominus.

WLC ⁴ אִם־ תַּגְבִּ֣יהַּ כַּנֶּ֔שֶׁר וְאִם־ בֵּ֥ין כּֽוֹכָבִ֖ים שִׂ֣ים קִנֶּ֑ךָ מִשָּׁ֥ם אוֹרִֽידְךָ֖ נְאֻם־ יְהוָֽה׃

KJV 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?

VULC ⁵ Si fures introissent ad te,
si latrones per noctem,
quomodo conticuisses ?
nonne furati essent sufficientia sibi ?
Si vindemiatores introissent ad te,
numquid saltem racemum reliquissent tibi ?

WLC ⁵ אִם־ גַּנָּבִ֤ים בָּאֽוּ־ לְךָ֙ אִם־ שׁ֣וֹדְדֵי לַ֔יְלָה אֵ֣יךְ נִדְמֵ֔יתָה הֲל֥וֹא יִגְנְב֖וּ דַּיָּ֑ם אִם־ בֹּֽצְרִים֙ בָּ֣אוּ לָ֔ךְ הֲל֖וֹא יַשְׁאִ֥ירוּ עֹלֵלֽוֹת׃

KJV ⁶ How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!

VULC ⁶ Quomodo scrutati sunt Esau ;
investigaverunt abscondita ejus ?

WLC ⁶ אֵ֚יךְ נֶחְפְּשׂ֣וּ עֵשָׂ֔ו נִבְע֖וּ מַצְפֻּנָֽיו׃

KJV ⁷ All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; that they eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none understanding in him.

VULC ⁷ Usque ad terminum emiserunt te :
omnes viri fœderis tui illuserunt tibi :
invaluerunt adversum te viri pacis tuæ,
qui comedunt tecum, ponent insidias subter te ;
non est prudentia in eo.

WLC ⁷ עַֽד־ הַגְּב֣וּל שִׁלְּח֗וּךָ כֹּ֚ל אַנְשֵׁ֣י בְרִיתֶ֔ךָ הִשִּׁיא֛וּךָ יָכְל֥וּ לְךָ֖ אַנְשֵׁ֣י שְׁלֹמֶ֑ךָ לַחְמְךָ֗ יָשִׂ֤ימוּ מָזוֹר֙ תַּחְתֶּ֔יךָ אֵ֥ין תְּבוּנָ֖ה בּֽוֹ׃

KJV ⁸ Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, even destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?

VULC ⁸ Numquid non in die illa, dicit Dominus,
perdam sapientes de Idumæa,
et prudentiam de monte Esau ?

WLC ⁸ הֲל֛וֹא בַּיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא נְאֻם־ יְהוָ֑ה וְהַאֲבַדְתִּ֤י חֲכָמִים֙ מֵֽאֱד֔וֹם וּתְבוּנָ֖ה מֵהַ֥ר עֵשָֽׂו׃

KJV ⁹ And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.

VULC ⁹ Et timebunt fortes tui a meridie,
ut intereat vir de monte Esau.

WLC ⁹ וְחַתּ֥וּ גִבּוֹרֶ֖יךָ תֵּימָ֑ן לְמַ֧עַן יִכָּֽרֶת־ אִ֛ישׁ מֵהַ֥ר עֵשָׂ֖ו מִקָּֽטֶל׃

KJV ¹⁰ For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.

VULC ¹⁰ Propter interfectionem,
et propter iniquitatem in fratrem tuum Jacob,
operiet te confusio, et peribis in æternum.

WLC ¹⁰ מֵחֲמַ֛ס אָחִ֥יךָ יַעֲקֹ֖ב תְּכַסְּךָ֣ בוּשָׁ֑ה וְנִכְרַ֖תָּ לְעוֹלָֽם׃

KJV ¹¹ In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.

VULC ¹¹ In die cum stares adversus eum,
quando capiebant alieni exercitum ejus,
et extranei ingrediebantur portas ejus,
et super Jerusalem mittebant sortem,
tu quoque eras quasi unus ex eis.

WLC ¹¹ בְּיוֹם֙ עֲמָֽדְךָ֣ מִנֶּ֔גֶד בְּי֛וֹם שְׁב֥וֹת זָרִ֖ים חֵיל֑וֹ וְנָכְרִ֞ים בָּ֣אוּ וְעַל־ יְרוּשָׁלִַ֙ם֙ יַדּ֣וּ גוֹרָ֔ל גַּם־ אַתָּ֖ה כְּאַחַ֥ד מֵהֶֽם׃

KJV ¹² But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.

VULC ¹² Et non despicies in die fratris tui,
in die peregrinationis ejus :
et non lætaberis super filios Juda
in die perditionis eorum :
et non magnificabis os tuum
in die angustiæ.

WLC ¹² וְאַל־ תֵּ֤רֶא בְיוֹם־ אָחִ֙יךָ֙ בְּי֣וֹם נָכְר֔וֹ וְאַל־ תִּשְׂמַ֥ח לִבְנֵֽי־ יְהוּדָ֖ה בְּי֣וֹם אָבְדָ֑ם וְאַל־ תַּגְדֵּ֥ל פִּ֖יךָ בְּי֥וֹם צָרָֽה׃

KJV ¹³ Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity;

VULC ¹³ Neque ingredieris portam populi mei
in die ruinæ eorum ;
neque despicies et tu in malis ejus
in die vastitatis illius.
Et non emitteris adversus exercitum ejus
in die vastitatis illius,

WLC ¹³ אַל־ תָּב֤וֹא בְשַֽׁעַר־ עַמִּי֙ בְּי֣וֹם אֵידָ֔ם אַל־ תֵּ֧רֶא גַם־ אַתָּ֛ה בְּרָעָת֖וֹ בְּי֣וֹם אֵיד֑וֹ וְאַל־ תִּשְׁלַ֥חְנָה בְחֵיל֖וֹ בְּי֥וֹם אֵידֽוֹ׃

KJV ¹⁴ Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress.

VULC ¹⁴ neque stabis in exitibus
ut interficias eos qui fugerint,
et non concludes reliquos ejus
in die tribulationis.

WLC ¹⁴ וְאַֽל־ תַּעֲמֹד֙ עַל־ הַפֶּ֔רֶק לְהַכְרִ֖ית אֶת־ פְּלִיטָ֑יו וְאַל־ תַּסְגֵּ֥ר שְׂרִידָ֖יו בְּי֥וֹם צָרָֽה׃

KJV ¹⁵ For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.

VULC ¹⁵ Quoniam juxta est dies Domini super omnes gentes :
sicut fecisti, fiet tibi ;
retributionem tuam convertet in caput tuum.

WLC ¹⁵ כִּֽי־ קָר֥וֹב יוֹם־ יְהוָ֖ה עַל־ כָּל־ הַגּוֹיִ֑ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר עָשִׂ֙יתָ֙ יֵעָ֣שֶׂה לָּ֔ךְ גְּמֻלְךָ֖ יָשׁ֥וּב בְּרֹאשֶֽׁךָ׃

KJV ¹⁶ For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.

VULC ¹⁶ Quomodo enim bibistis super montem sanctum meum,
bibent omnes gentes jugiter :
et bibent, et absorbebunt,
et erunt quasi non sint.

WLC ¹⁶ כִּ֗י כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֤ר שְׁתִיתֶם֙ עַל־ הַ֣ר קָדְשִׁ֔י יִשְׁתּ֥וּ כָֽל־ הַגּוֹיִ֖ם תָּמִ֑יד וְשָׁת֣וּ וְלָע֔וּ וְהָי֖וּ כְּל֥וֹא הָיֽוּ׃

KJV ¹⁷ But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.

VULC ¹⁷ Et in monte Sion erit salvatio, et erit sanctus ;
et possidebit domus Jacob eos qui se possederant.

WLC ¹⁷ וּבְהַ֥ר צִיּ֛וֹן תִּהְיֶ֥ה פְלֵיטָ֖ה וְהָ֣יָה קֹ֑דֶשׁ וְיָֽרְשׁוּ֙ בֵּ֣ית יַֽעֲקֹ֔ב אֵ֖ת מוֹרָֽשֵׁיהֶם׃

KJV ¹⁸ And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.

VULC ¹⁸ Et erit domus Jacob ignis,
et domus Joseph flamma,
et domus Esau stipula :
et succendentur in eis, et devorabunt eos,
et non erunt reliquiæ domus Esau,
quia Dominus locutus est.

WLC ¹⁸ וְהָיָה֩ בֵית־ יַעֲקֹ֨ב אֵ֜שׁ וּבֵ֧ית יוֹסֵ֣ף לֶהָבָ֗ה וּבֵ֤ית עֵשָׂו֙ לְקַ֔שׁ וְדָלְק֥וּ בָהֶ֖ם וַאֲכָל֑וּם וְלֹֽא־ יִֽהְיֶ֤ה שָׂרִיד֙ לְבֵ֣ית עֵשָׂ֔ו כִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה דִּבֵּֽר׃

KJV ¹⁹ And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.

VULC ¹⁹ Et hæreditabunt hi, qui ad austrum sunt, montem Esau,
et qui in campestribus, Philisthiim :
et possidebunt regionem Ephraim et regionem Samariæ,
et Benjamin possidebit Galaad.

WLC ¹⁹ וְיָרְשׁ֨וּ הַנֶּ֜גֶב אֶת־ הַ֣ר עֵשָׂ֗ו וְהַשְּׁפֵלָה֙ אֶת־ פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים וְיָרְשׁוּ֙ אֶת־ שְׂדֵ֣ה אֶפְרַ֔יִם וְאֵ֖ת שְׂדֵ֣ה שֹׁמְר֑וֹן וּבִנְיָמִ֖ן אֶת־ הַגִּלְעָֽד׃

KJV ²⁰ And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the south.

VULC ²⁰ Et transmigratio exercitus hujus filiorum Israël,
omnia loca Chananæorum usque ad Sareptam :
et transmigratio Jerusalem, quæ in Bosphoro est,
possidebit civitates austri.
