Obadiah 2-4
The Message
2-4 “Listen to this, Edom:
I’m turning you to a no-account,
the runt of the godless nations, despised.
You thought you were so great,
perched high among the rocks, king of the mountain,
Thinking to yourself,
‘Nobody can get to me! Nobody can touch me!’
Think again. Even if, like an eagle,
you hang out on a high cliff-face,
Even if you build your nest in the stars,
I’ll bring you down to earth.”
God’s sure Word.

Obadiah 2-4
New International Version
2 “See, I will make you small(A) among the nations;
you will be utterly despised.
3 The pride(B) of your heart has deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks[a](C)
and make your home on the heights,
you who say to yourself,
‘Who can bring me down to the ground?’(D)
4 Though you soar like the eagle
and make your nest(E) among the stars,
from there I will bring you down,”(F)
declares the Lord.(G)
