1 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

2Behold, I will make you small among the nations,
you shall be utterly despised.
The LORD will punish Edom. Ob.1.2-9הִנֵּה קָטֹן נְתַתִּיךָ בַּגֹּויִם בָּזוּי אַתָּה מְאֹד׃
3The pride of your heart has deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rock,
whose dwelling is high,
who say in your heart,
"Who will bring me down to the ground?"
 זְדֹון לִבְּךָ הִשִּׁיאֶךָ שֹׁכְנִי בְחַגְוֵי־סֶּלַע מְרֹום שִׁבְתֹּו אֹמֵר בְּלִבֹּו מִי יֹורִדֵנִי אָרֶץ׃
4Though you soar aloft like the eagle,
though your nest is set among the stars,
thence I will bring you down,
says Yahweh.
 אִם־תַּגְבִּיהַּ כַּנֶּשֶׁר וְאִם־בֵּין כֹּוכָבִים שִׂים קִנֶּךָ מִשָּׁם אֹורִידְךָ נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃
5If thieves came to you,
if plunderers by night -
how you have been destroyed! -
would they not steal only enough for themselves?
If grape gatherers came to you,
would they not leave gleanings?
 אִם־גַּנָּבִים בָּאוּ־לְךָ אִם־שֹׁודְדֵי לַיְלָה אֵיךְ נִדְמֵיתָה הֲלֹוא יִגְנְבוּ דַּיָּם אִם־בֹּצְרִים בָּאוּ לָךְ הֲלֹוא יַשְׁאִירוּ עֹלֵלֹות׃
6How Esau has been pillaged,
his treasures sought out!
 אֵיךְ נֶחְפְּשׂוּ עֵשָׂו נִבְעוּ מַצְפֻּנָיו׃
7All your allies have deceived you,
they have driven you to the border;
your confederates have prevailed against you;
your trusted friends have set a trap under you -
there is no understanding of it.
 עַד־הַגְּבוּל שִׁלְּחוּךָ כֹּל אַנְשֵׁי בְרִיתֶךָ הִשִּׁיאוּךָ יָכְלוּ לְךָ אַנְשֵׁי שְׁלֹמֶךָ לַחְמְךָ יָשִׂימוּ מָזֹור תַּחְתֶּיךָ אֵין תְּבוּנָה בֹּו׃
8Will I not on that day, says Yahweh,
destroy the wise men out of Edom,
and understanding out of Mount Esau?
 הֲלֹוא בַּיֹּום הַהוּא נְאֻם־יְהוָה וְהַאֲבַדְתִּי חֲכָמִים מֵאֱדֹום וּתְבוּנָה מֵהַר עֵשָׂו׃
9And your mighty men shall be dismayed, O Teman,
so that every man from Mount Esau will be cut off by slaughter.
 וְחַתּוּ גִבֹּורֶיךָ תֵּימָן לְמַעַן יִכָּרֶת־אִישׁ מֵהַר עֵשָׂו מִקָּטֶל׃

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
