Malo mage Obadia, Noo byelihugana Mlume Abetcha yulu ya Edomu; Twahewa mwano wa Mlume, na mdogomi gwahilwa hawingi ha mioga Gulihudogoma, Bino muginyuwe benwe; Na tuginyuwe tulwe nage.
2
Lolwe, nwita mchoo hawingi ha mioga; Wanenunwa abisa
3
Uginyuwa wa mtima gobe uubicha, Gogwe mine ulihushama mmiao gya mawe, Mine gwina bushamo bwage hegulu abisa, Mnda mtima gulihudogoma, ii nanyi gwisacha nene?
4
Winasela hegulu nahi loochi, inangwa iisa yobe yabiwa hawingi ha tumbala mbala, Niusacha uuhumya ubo, Mlume gwagana.
5
Nambo beebi babuchwila, nambo basapi babuchwila m'busugu, [ byolibele mshigwe koo ]Wii! basabagiba bya biingi ?nambo bahombi ba zabibu babujwilila , wii ! basabashiga chimwe zabibu , chitolwe?
6
Nahi baana ba Esau byabalihuengwa -engwa ! nahi pinda chage byachili chibiswe byachili hubuchiwa -buchiwa.
7
Batubose ba uhulichana nob buuchinga, mpaga na ung'umba; baya babiile talala nobe buubidiche, na uuhima; bene balihuya iliwa yobe babiya gochi hasi ha magulu mobe,; na ushi na lwengu lwa bibyo mnda mobe.
8
Lilyo chuba, Wii ! Nishibadiga batu bene bina bweenge ubo Edomu, na bene bina lweengu uu loono lwa Esau? Mlume gwagana.
9
N bilume pambwa byobe, Gogwe Temani, Bimona iduba, bibi kila mtu gabiwe koo yulu ya uhagwa u loono lwa Esau.
10
Yulu ya ahyionono agilile mshiwenyu Yakobo, butaa bwiuunina, na gogwe wilewa koo ata milumbu.
11
Liya chuba ugimene luubi,liya chuba bagenyi baguhile butunga bwage, n abatu ba ginge mioga habagingile u malimbwa mage, na uuma usobola yulu ya Yerusalemu, gogwe na gogwe ubele nahi gumwe gwabo.
12
Biino ushilochi chuba lwa mshiwenyu, lusugu lwa udidibuwa wage, na ushibashimange yulu ya baana ba Yuda chuba lwa ubachimya,; Na ushidogomi binwa bya uliginuna uu masugu na asusu abo.
13
Ushigingile u limbwa lya batu banyi, chuba lya asusu abo; Ehe, ushialole asusus abo, chuba lyabo lya uwilwa,; na ushibiye uboo u bumona bwabo; chuba lya uwilwa wabo.
14
Na ushigimane umasango nandila, yulu ya ubachinga koo batu bage malihusina; na ushibahunye batu bagebene bashigele masugu mabo ma asusu.
15
Yulu luli lusugu lwa Mlume luli hoka hegulu ha mioga gyose; nahi byoligilile, noo byoligililwa,; alambwe obe iugiwilila hegulu ha mswe gobe gogwe mine.
16
Nahi biya byamunywine mpala loono lwanyi lugengeda, noo bibi mioga gyose byabinwa wa ugililila; Ehe, binwa na ulugila-lugila, nabo babi nahi bashibele hoo ata,
17
Bibyo u loono Sayuni babi batu babahogononwe, nalo lubi lwa ugengeda; na ndu gya Yakobo bishama m'bushamo bwabo.
18
Na ndu gya Yakobo gibi ahyaa, na ndugya Yusufu gibi lulindi lwa ahyaa, na ndu gya Esau gibi byoloolo bya bugumu, nabobilama hwingi habo, na ubachigya; na hashishigala ata mtu gwa ndu gya Esau; bululi Mlume gwagana bibyo
19
Na batu ba Negebu bilushamina loono lwa Esau ; na batu ba Shefela bibahilila ba Filisti nabo bashamina lubala lwa Eflaimu, na lubala lwa Samalia, na Benjamine gubi heguluha Gileadi.
20
Na batu ba bilume pambwa ba Islaeli bawashilwe ubita, bene bali hawingi ha ba Kanaani, bishama pmaga Selepta; na babo batu ba Yelusalemu bawashilwe ubita,bene bali Sefaradi, boo no bishama mbuga,gya Negebu.
21
Iyaka bahigonochi bisala yulu ya loono Sayunibululi baluonone loono lwa Esau; na bubu buolo bubi ii bumona bwa Mlume.
