Obadiah 1:4 in Context — Obadiah 1
2 Eis que eu te faço pequeno entre as nações; tu és muito desprezado.
3 A arrogância de teu coração te enganou, tu que habitas nas fendas das rochas, em teu alta morada; que dizes em teu coração: Quem me derrubará ao chão?
4 Se te elevares como a águia, e se puseres teu ninho entre as estrelas, dali eu te derrubarei,diz o SENHOR.
5 Se ladrões viessem a ti, ou assaltantes de noite, não furtariam [apenas] o que lhes bastasse? Se vindimadores viessem a ti, por acaso eles não deixariam algumas sobras? [Porém tu] , como estás arrasado!
6 Como Esaú foi saqueado! Como seus tesouros foram tomados!
