Obadiah 4-6
International Children’s Bible
4 You fly high like the eagle.
You make your nest among the stars.
But I will bring you down from there,” says the Lord.
5 “You will really be ruined!
It would be better if thieves come to you,
if robbers come by night.
They would steal only enough for themselves.
Workers come and pick the grapes from your vines.
But they would leave a few grapes behind.
6 But you, Edom, will really lose everything!
People will find even your hidden treasures!
Obadiah 4-6
New International Version
4 Though you soar like the eagle
and make your nest(A) among the stars,
from there I will bring you down,”(B)
declares the Lord.(C)
5 “If thieves came to you,
if robbers in the night—
oh, what a disaster awaits you!—
would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
If grape pickers came to you,
would they not leave a few grapes?(D)
6 But how Esau will be ransacked,
his hidden treasures pillaged!
