English Standard Version
Obadiah 1:8-15
8Will I not on that day, declares the Lord, destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of Mount Esau?
9And your mighty men shall be dismayed, O Teman, so that every man from Mount Esau will be cut off by slaughter.
10Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame shall cover you, and you shall be cut off forever.
11On the day that you stood aloof, on the day that strangers carried off his wealth and foreigners entered his gates and cast lots for Jerusalem, you were like one of them.
12But do not gloat over the day of your brother in the day of his misfortune; do not rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their ruin; do not boast in the day of distress.
13Do not enter the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; do not gloat over his disaster in the day of his calamity; do not loot his wealth in the day of his calamity.
14Do not stand at the crossroads to cut off his fugitives; do not hand over his survivors in the day of distress.
15For the day of the Lord is near upon all the nations. As you have done, it shall be done to you; your deeds shall return on your own head.
