Obadiah 1:16 in Context — Obadiah 1

14 Nem devias ter ficado parado nas encruzilhadas, para exterminar os que dela escapassem; nem devias ter entregue os sobreviventes no dia da angústia.

15 Porque perto está o dia do SENHOR sobre todas as nações; como tu fizeste, assim se fará a ti; o pagamento devido voltará sobre tua cabeça.

17 Mas no monte de Sião haverá livramento, e ele voltará a ser santo; e a casa de Jacó tomará posse de suas propriedades.
