30 Ngoko uEsawu wathi kuYakobi: “Nceda, khawulezisa, undiphe ndiginye kule nto ibomvu—loo nto ibomvu, kuba ndidiniwe!” Kungenxa yoko le nto kwathiwa igama lakhe nguEdom.+

36 Yiyo le ke imbali kaEsawu, oko kukuthi, uEdom.+

5 “Kuba emazulwini ikrele lam+ ngokuqinisekileyo liya kuba manzi. Khangela! Liya kuhlela phezu koEdom,+ naphezu kwabantu endibanikele kwintshabalalo+ ngokusesikweni.

12 “Itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova ukuthi, ‘Ngenxa yokuba uEdom eziphindezelele kwindlu kaYuda waza waqhubeka esenza ububi obukhulu eziphindezelela kuyo,+

11 “Utsho uYehova ukuthi, ‘Ngenxa yokuvukela kathathu kukaEdom,+ nangenxa yokuba kukane, andiyi kukubuyisa oku, ngenxa yokusukela kwakhe umntakwabo ngekrele,+ nangenxa yokuba wonakalisa iimpawu zakhe zenceba,+ nomsindo wakhe uqwenga ngonaphakade; nokuvutha komsindo wakhe—wakugcina ngokungapheliyo.+

1 Umbono kaObhadiya:

Itshilo iNkosi enguMongami uYehova ngoEdom ukuthi:+ “Sive ingxelo evela kuYehova, yaye kuthunyelwe umthunywa ezintlangeni esithi, ‘Masisuke, siye edabini silwe naye.’”+

4 “Ngenxa yokuba uEdom uqhubeka esithi, ‘Siqotyiwe, kodwa siya kubuya size sizakhe iindawo eziphanzileyo,’ utsho uYehova wemikhosi, ‘Bona baya kwakha; kodwa mna ndiya kudiliza.+ Yaye ngokuqinisekileyo abantu baya kubabiza ngokuba “ngummandla wobungendawo” nangokuba “ngabantu uYehova abaqalekisileyo+ ukusa kwixesha elingenammiselo.”
