10Because of the violenceH2555 against your brotherH251 JacobH3290, you will be coveredH3680 with shameH955 and cut offH3772 foreverH5769.11On the dayH3117 you stoodH5975 aloofH5048 whileH3117 strangersH2114 carried offH7617 his wealthH2428 and foreignersH5237 enteredH935 his gateH8179 and castH3032 lotsH1486 H1571 forH5921 JerusalemH3389, youH859 were just like oneH259 of them.12But you should notH408 gloatH7200 in that dayH3117, your brother’sH251 dayH3117 of misfortuneH5235, norH408 rejoiceH8055 over the peopleH1121 of JudahH3063 in the dayH3117 of their destructionH6, norH408 boast proudlyH1431 H6310 1 in the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.13You should notH408 enterH935 the gateH8179 of My peopleH5971 in the dayH3117 of their disasterH343, norH408 gloatH7200 overH1571 their afflictionH7451 in the dayH3117 of their disasterH343, norH408 lootH7971 their wealthH2428 in the dayH3117 of their disasterH343.14Nor should youH408 standH5975 atH5921 the crossroadsH6563 to cut offH3772 their fugitivesH6412, norH408 deliver upH5462 their survivorsH8300 in the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.

15ForH3588 the DayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138forH5921 allH3605 the nationsH1471.AsH834 you have doneH6213, it will be doneH6213 to you;your recompenseH1576 will returnH7725 upon your own headH7218.16ForH3588 asH834 you drankH8354 onH5921 My holyH6944 mountainH2022,so allH3605 the nationsH1471 will drinkH8354 continuallyH8548.They will drinkH8354 and gulp it downH3886;they will beH1961 as if they had neverH3808 existedH1961.17But on MountH2022 ZionH6726 there will beH1961 deliveranceH6413,and it will beH1961 holyH6944,and the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 will reclaimH3423 their possessionH4180.18Then the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 will beH1961 a blazing fireH784,and the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 a burning flameH3852;but the houseH1004 of EsauH6215 will be stubbleH7179—Jacob will set it ablazeH1814 and consume itH398.Therefore noH3808 survivorH8300 will remainH1961from the houseH1004 of EsauH6215.”ForH3588 the LORDH3068 has spokenH1696.19Those from the NegevH5045 will possessH3423 the mountainsH2022 of EsauH6215;those from the foothillsH8219 2 will possess the land of the PhilistinesH6430.They will occupyH3423 the fieldsH7704 of EphraimH669 and SamariaH8111,and BenjaminH1144 will possess GileadH1568.20And the exilesH1546 of thisH2088 hostH2426 of the IsraelitesH1121 H3478 will possess the land of the CanaanitesH3669 asH5704 far as ZarephathH6886;and the exilesH1546 from JerusalemH3389 whoH834 are in SepharadH5614will possessH3423 the citiesH5892 of the NegevH5045.21The deliverersH3467 will ascendH5927 3 MountH2022 ZionH6726to rule overH8199 the mountainsH2022 of EsauH6215.
