Obadiah 2-4
EasyEnglish Bible
2 The Lord says to Edom,
‘I will make you small among other people.
They will think that you are not worth anything.
3 You think that you are better than other people. And so you believe something that is not true.
You live in a place that is difficult to reach.
Your home is high up in a place among rocks.
You say to yourself,
“Nobody can reach us up here.”
4 You may be like a strong bird that flies high.
And you may make your home in the highest places among the stars.
But I will bring you down from there.’
That is what the Lord says.

Obadiah 2-4
New International Version
2 “See, I will make you small(A) among the nations;
you will be utterly despised.
3 The pride(B) of your heart has deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks[a](C)
and make your home on the heights,
you who say to yourself,
‘Who can bring me down to the ground?’(D)
4 Though you soar like the eagle
and make your nest(E) among the stars,
from there I will bring you down,”(F)
declares the Lord.(G)
