WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:00.940 Obadiah. 00:01.500 --> 00:02.760 The Vision of Obadiah. 00:03.680 --> 00:06.280 Thus saith the Lord God, concerning Edom. 00:06.680 --> 00:09.780 We have heard a rumor from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent among the 00:09.780 --> 00:10.100 heathen. 00:10.460 --> 00:12.920 Arise, ye, and let us rise up against her in battle. 00:13.260 --> 00:15.980 Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen. 00:16.480 --> 00:17.900 Thou art greatly despised. 00:18.440 --> 00:20.260 The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee. 00:20.720 --> 00:23.760 Thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high, 00:24.220 --> 00:27.520 that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? 00:27.520 --> 00:31.660 Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the 00:31.660 --> 00:34.660 stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord. 00:35.140 --> 00:38.940 If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, how art thou cut off? 00:39.480 --> 00:41.200 Would they not have stolen till they had enough? 00:41.600 --> 00:44.460 If the grape-gatherers came to thee, would they not leave some grapes? 00:45.060 --> 00:47.100 How are the things of Esau searched out? 00:47.700 --> 00:49.620 How are his hidden things sought up? 00:49.940 --> 00:52.620 All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border. 00:53.200 --> 00:56.500 The men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee. 00:56.960 --> 00:58.840 They that eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee. 00:59.240 --> 01:00.500 There is none understanding in him. 01:01.080 --> 01:04.760 Shall I not in that day, saith the Lord, even destroy the wise men out of Edom, 01:05.180 --> 01:06.960 and understanding out of the mount of Esau? 01:07.340 --> 01:11.220 And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed to the end that every one of the 01:11.220 --> 01:13.120 mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter. 01:13.780 --> 01:16.860 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob, shame shall cover thee, 01:17.100 --> 01:18.460 and thou shalt be cut off for ever. 01:19.100 --> 01:22.920 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers 01:22.920 --> 01:26.380 carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, 01:26.600 --> 01:30.020 and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them. 01:30.720 --> 01:33.720 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother, in the day that he 01:33.720 --> 01:34.520 became a stranger. 01:35.120 --> 01:38.780 Neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah, in the day of their 01:38.780 --> 01:39.280 destruction. 01:39.940 --> 01:42.960 Neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress. 01:43.640 --> 01:46.940 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people, in the day of their 01:46.940 --> 01:47.660 calamity. 01:48.000 --> 01:50.820 Yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their 01:50.820 --> 01:54.340 calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity. 01:55.040 --> 01:58.980 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did 01:58.980 --> 01:59.400 escape. 02:00.080 --> 02:03.140 Neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of 02:03.140 --> 02:03.460 distress. 02:04.100 --> 02:06.400 For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen. 02:06.840 --> 02:09.460 As thou hadst done, it shall be done unto thee. 02:10.060 --> 02:11.960 Thy reward shall return upon thine own head. 02:12.480 --> 02:16.600 For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink 02:16.600 --> 02:17.120 continually. 02:17.540 --> 02:21.320 Yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though 02:21.320 --> 02:22.120 they had not been. 02:22.600 --> 02:27.220 But upon Mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness, and the house 02:27.220 --> 02:28.820 of Jacob shall possess their possessions. 02:29.400 --> 02:32.840 And the house of Jacob shall be afire, and the house of Joseph aflame, 02:33.220 --> 02:34.700 and the house of Esau for stubble. 02:35.060 --> 02:38.140 And they shall kindle in them, and devour them, and there shall not be 02:38.140 --> 02:39.780 any remaining of the house of Esau. 02:40.040 --> 02:44.320 For the Lord hath spoken it, and they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau, 02:44.660 --> 02:46.180 and they of the plain the Philistines. 02:46.560 --> 02:49.760 And they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria. 02:50.160 --> 02:53.640 And Benjamin shall possess Gilead, and the captivity of this host of the 02:53.640 --> 02:58.360 children of Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath. 02:58.660 --> 03:02.660 And the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the 03:02.660 --> 03:03.640 cities of the south. 03:04.220 --> 03:08.860 And saviors shall come up on Mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau, and the kingdom 03:08.860 --> 03:10.300 shall be the Lord's.
