1Umbono wa-Obadiya: Loku ngulokwakhulunywa yiNkhosi Simakadze ngesive saka-Edomu: Sivile livi leliphuma kuSimakadze. Utfumele lincusa lakhe etiveni, watsi: “Sukumani, sambe siyekulwa na-Edomu.”

2Simakadze ukhuluma ku-Edomu, utsi: “Ngitakwenta ube ngulomncane emkhatsini wetive, ngikwente wedzeleleke kakhulu.

3Kutigcabha kwenhlitiyo yakho kukwedukisile, wena uhlala endlunkhulu yakho lesemifantwini yemadvwala. Umuti wakho usetulu etintsabeni. Wena utitjela utsi: ‘Ngubani nje longangehlisela phansi?’

4Nome likhaya lakho ungalakha etulu, njengelusweti, nome ungalakha emkhatsini wetinkhanyeti, mine ngiyawukudzilitela phansi.

5“Kube bewungagcekezelwa ngemasela nome-ke ungenelwe tigelekece ebusuku, betingeke tatitapela ngekufuna kwato yini? Kube bavuni bemagelebisi bebete kuwe bebangete bawachulula kusale abe mbalwa yini? Kodvwa titsa tiyakunicitsa niphele nya.

6Nine titukulwane ta-Esawu, umcebo wenu lebewufihliwe sewuphangiwe.

7Bonkhe labo bewubambisene nabo bakukhohlisile, batakuhlehlisela emnyeleni welive lakho. Bantfu benihletisene nabo ngekuthula nyalo sebakwehlulile. Bangani bakho bewudla nabo sebakwetsiyele lugibe, badzimate bakhuluma bodvwa ngawe, batsi: ‘Kuphi-ke lokuhlakanipha kwakhe?’ ”

8Simakadze ukhuluma utsi: “Mhlazana ngijezisa Edomu ngiyewubhubhisa netati takhe ngicedze konkhe kuhlakanipha kwakhe etintsabeni taka-Esawu.

9Emabutfo akho, Themani, ayakutfutfumela, bonkhe bantfu labaseveni letintsaba, lekulive laka-Edomu, bayakubulawa.”

10“Ngenca yebudlova bakho lobente kubomnakenu, titukulwane taJakobe, uyakwembeswa ngelihlazo, ubhujiswe ingunaphakadze.

11Mhlazane ume untontomele ngesikhatsi bafokati batfumba umcebo wakhe, nebetive bangena emasangweni akhe, benta inkatho ngeJerusalema, nawe kwakungatsi umdvumo munye nabo.

12Bekungakafaneli umbukele phansi umnakenu, nakavelelwe ngulokubi. Bewungakafaneli utsakase nangabe bakaJuda behlelwa yimbhubhiso. Yebo, bewungakafaneli kubacoloshela namzukwane behlelwa yinhlupheko.

13Bewungakafaneli kungena emasangweni ebantfu bami ngesikhatsi behlelwa sigemegeme. Bewungakafaneli kubabukela phansi bantfu bami ngelilanga lekuhlupheka kwabo. Bewungakafaneli kuwuphanga umcebo webantfu bami.

14Bewungakafaneli kuma emahlanganweni emigwaco khona utebabamba labo labaphunyulile. Bewungakafaneli kunikela ngensali yabo ngelilanga lekuhlupheka kwabo.”

15“Lilanga laSimakadze lekwehlulela tonkhe tive selisondzele. Njengobe wentile nawe Edomu kuyakwentiwa njalo nakuwe; tento takho tiyawuphindziselwa kuwe.

16Njengobe nawe wanatsa indzebe yekujezisa kwami entsabeni yami lengcwele, netive tonkhe tiyawuyinatsa khona siphelane; tiyawunatsa, tinatse kuze kube shangatsi atizange setibe khona.”

17“Kodvwa eNtsabeni iSiyoni kuyawuba nenkhululeko; kuyawuba yindzawo lengcwele. Umndeni wakaJakobe uyawulidla lelive lekulifa lawo.

18Umndeni wakaJakobe uyawuba ngumlilo, umndeni wakaJosefa ube lilangabi. Umndeni waka-Esawu uyawuba tibi, bayakuwokhela ngemlilo bawushise uze uphele. Kuyawubate insali emndenini waka-Esawu. Mine, Simakadze, sengishito.”

19Sive lesichamuka eNegevu siyawuhlala eveni letintsaba lekungela-Edomu. Sive lesisuka emaceleni etintsaba siyawulitfumba live lemaFilisti. Yebo, ema-Israyeli ayawulitsatsa live laka-Efrayimu nelaseSamariya. BakaBhenjamini bona bayawutsatsa lakaGileyadi.

20Lama-Israyeli ladzingisiwe, laseKhenani, ayawulidla lelo live, lize liyekuma ngeSarefathi. Labadzingisiwe bekusuka eJerusalema, labaseSefaradi kwanyalo, bayakuwadla emadolobha aseNegevu.

21Emachawe aseJerusalema ayawuyincoba iNtsaba iSiyoni alibuse lelive laka-Edomu. Lowo mbuso uyakwenganyelwa nguSimakadze.
