Obadiah 1:12-18
121Do not 2gloat over your brother’s day, The day of his misfortune. And 3do not rejoice over the sons of Judah In the day of their destruction; Yes, 4do not 5boast In the day of their distress.13Do not enter the gate of My people In the 6day of their disaster. Yes, you, do not 7gloat over their calamity In the day of their disaster. And do not 8loot their wealth In the day of their disaster.14Do not 9stand at the fork of the road To cut down their fugitives; And do not imprison their survivors In the day of their distress.
15“For the 10day of the Lord draws near on all the nations. 11As you have done, it will be done to you. Your 12dealings will return on your own head.16Because just as you 13drank on 14My holy mountain, All the nations 15will drink continually. They will drink and 16swallow And become as if they had never existed.17But on Mount 17Zion there will be those who escape, And it will be holy. And the house of Jacob will 18possess their possessions.18Then the house of Jacob will be a 19fire And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be as stubble. And they will set 20them on fire and consume 21them, So that there will be 22no survivor of the house of Esau,” For the Lord has spoken.
