Okworekwa kwa Obadia. Oku nikwo Mukama RUHANGA arikugamba ahari Edomu naagira ati:

Tuhuriire amakuru agarugire ahari MUKAMA,

Entumwa etumirwe aha mahanga.

Nimwimukye, twimukye tumurwanise.

2Reeba, niinyija kukugira mukye omu mahanga,

Obe orikugayirwa kimwe.

3Amaryo g'omu mutima gwawe gakubeihire,

Iwe otuura omu bicokoromi by'amabaare,

Otuura omu myanya y'ahaiguru,

Orikugira omu mutima gwawe oti:

N'oha owaakumpanurayo, akangarura ahansi?

4N'obu oraatumbiikye eiguru nk'eishamba,

Okaarika ahaiguru ahagati y'enyonyoozi,

Okwo nayo ndyakuhanurayo, ogarukye ahansi;

nikwo MUKAMA arikugira. 52

Abashuma nari abambuzi ku baakukwijaho nyekiro,

Tibakaiba ebirikubamara byonka?

(Eshi ocwekyereziibwe!)

Abashoromi b'emizaabibu ku baakwija owaawe,

Tibakaakutsigira eby'okuhumba?

6Eshi Esau anyagirwe,

Ebintu bye by'obuguzi bwingi byacaakwa! 73

Abakwatanisa naiwe boona bakubeihire,

Baakubinga, baakuhitsya aha mwatano;

Abantu abu ogira nabo obusingye bakusingwire,

Banywani baawe abu orikwesiga bakutegire omutego;

Kwonka tiwaakimanya. 84

MUKAMA naagira ati: Eryo izooba

Tindicwekyereza abanyabwengye, nkabamara omuri Edomu,

Okwetegyereza kukahwa aha rushozi rwa Esau? 95

Iwe Temani, amamanzi gaawe garyahahaaza emitima,

Buri muntu w'aha rushozi rwa Esau aitwe. 106

Obubisha obu waagiriire murumuna waawe Yakobo

Buryakureetera kushwekwa enshoni,

Omarirweho kimwe ebiro byona. 117

Eizooba riri obu waamwemerera hangahari,

Obu abahinguzi baanyaga obutungi bwe,

Abanyamahanga bakataaha omu marembo ge,

Bakateerera Yerusaalemu enteenyu,

Naiwe okaba ori nkabo. 128

Kwonka okaba otashemereire kuteerera murumuna waawe omu kwahwa

Aha izooba eri yaagwereirweho akagwe;

Okaba otashemereire kwesiimirana Abayuda

Aha izooba eri baacwekyerereziibweho;

Okaba otashemereire kwehimbisa

Aha izooba ry'okweshobera;

13Okaba otashemereire kutaaha omu irembo ry'abantu bangye

Aha izooba eri baareebeireho enaku,

Nari okubateerera omu kwahwa

Aha izooba eri baareebeireho enaku,

Nari okushahura ebintu byabo

Aha izooba eri baareebeireho enaku;

14Okaba otashemereire kwemerera omu ntaaniro z'emihanda

Kumaraho abantu be abarikuhunga;

Kandi okaba otashemereire kuhayo abantu be abahonokireho

Aha izooba ryabo ry'okureeberaho enaku. 159

Ahabw'okuba eizooba rya MUKAMA riri haihi kuhika aha mahanga goona.

Nk'oku mwagizire, naimwe nikwo murigirwa;

Ebi mwakozire, biryabahindukana. 1610

Nk'oku mwanywereire aha rushozi rwangye orurikwera,

Nikwo n'amahanga goona agari embaju zoona garinywa;

Buzima garyanywa, gataruze,

Gabe nk'agatakabahoga. 1711

Kwonka aha rushozi Saayuuni haryabaho abahonokireho;

Habe aharikwera.

Kandi ab'enju ya Yakobo baryagaruka batungye

Ebyabaire biri ebyabo. 1812

Enju ya Yakobo eryaba omuriro;

Enju ya Yosefu eryaba ekirimi ky'omuriro,

N'enju ya Esau ebe nk'ebitsintsi by'embuba.

Baryabootsya, babamareho,

Habure owaahonokaho aha b'omuri egyo nju;

Ahabw'okuba MUKAMA niwe yaakigamba. 1913

Ab'omuri Negebu baryakubuura orushozi rwa Esau,

Ab'omu mpita bakubuure ensi y'Abafilistia,

Bakubuure ensi ya Efuraimu n'eya Samaria;

Kandi Benyamiini eryakubuura Gileadi. 2014

Enkwatwa z'omuri Hala ez'omu Baisraeli

N'enkwatwa za Yerusaalemu ez'omuri Sefaraadi

Ziryakubuura endembo z'omuri Negebu. 2115

Kutegyeka orushozi rwa Esau;

Kandi obugabe buryaba obwa MUKAMA.
