Obadiah 3-5

New American Standard Bible 1995

³ “The ^(A)arrogance of your heart has deceived you,
You who live in the clefts of ^[a]the ^(B)rock,
In the loftiness of your dwelling place,
Who say in your heart,
‘^(C)Who will bring me down to earth?’
⁴ “Though you ^(D)build high like the eagle,
Though you set your nest among the ^(E)stars,
From there I will bring you down,” declares the Lord.
⁵ “If ^(F)thieves came to you,
If ^[b]robbers by night—
O how you will be ruined!—
Would they not steal only ^[c]until they had enough?
If grape gatherers came to you,
^(G)Would they not leave some gleanings?
