Obadiah 1:4 in Context — Obadiah 1
2 He aquí, pequeño te he hecho entre las gentes; abatido eres tú en gran manera.
3 La soberbia de tu corazón te ha engañado, tú que moras en las hendiduras de las peñas, en tu altísima morada; que dices en tu corazón: ¿Quién me derribará á tierra?
4 Si te encaramares como águila, y si entre las estrellas pusieres tu nido, de ahí te derribaré, dice Jehová.
5 Si ladrones vinieran á ti, ó robadores de noche (¡cómo has sido destruído!) ¿no hurtaran lo que les bastase? Pues si entraran á ti vendimiadores, aun dejaran algún rebusco.
6 ¡Cómo fueron escudriñadas [las cosas de] Esaú! sus cosas escondidas fueron buscadas.
