Berean Standard Bible
Obadiah 1:8-15
8In that day, declares the LORD, will I not destroy the wise men of Edom and the men of understanding in the mountains of Esau?9Then your mighty men, O Teman, will be terrified, so that everyone in the mountains of Esau will be cut down in the slaughter.
10Because of the violence against your brother Jacob,you will be covered with shameand cut off forever.11On the day you stood aloofwhile strangers carried off his wealthand foreigners entered his gateand cast lots for Jerusalem,you were just like one of them.12But you should not gloat in that day,your brother’s day of misfortune,nor rejoice over the people of Judahin the day of their destruction,nor boast proudly1in the day of their distress.13You should not enter the gate of My peoplein the day of their disaster,nor gloat over their afflictionin the day of their disaster,nor loot their wealthin the day of their disaster.14Nor should you stand at the crossroadsto cut off their fugitives,nor deliver up their survivorsin the day of their distress.
15For the Day of the LORD is nearfor all the nations.As you have done, it will be done to you;your recompense will return upon your own head.
