7AllH3605 the 1menH376 2alliedH1285 with you Will sendH7971 you forth to the borderH1366, And the menH376 at peaceH7965 with you Will deceiveH5378 you and overpowerH3201 you. They who eat your 3breadH3899 Will setH7760 an ambushH4204 for you. (ThereH369 is 4noH369 understandingH8394 5in him.)8Will I not on that dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “6DestroyH6 wiseH2450 menH2450 from EdomH112 And understandingH8394 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215?9Then your 7mightyH1368 menH1368 will be dismayedH2865, O 8TemanH8487, So that everyoneH376 may be 9cutH3772 offH3772 from the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215 by slaughterH6993.
10“BecauseH4480 of 10violenceH2555 to your brotherH251 JacobH3290, 11You will be coveredH3680 with shameH955, 12And you will be cutH3772 offH3772 foreverH5769.11On the dayH3117 that you 13stoodH5975 aloofH4480H5048, On the dayH3117 that strangersH2114 carriedH7617 offH7617 his wealthH2428, And foreignersH5237 enteredH935 his gateH8179 And 14castH3032 lotsH1486 for JerusalemH3389-- 15You tooH1571 were as oneH259 of them.1216Do not 17gloatH7200 over your brother’sH251 dayH3117, The dayH3117 of his misfortuneH5235. And 18do not rejoiceH8055 over the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 In the dayH3117 of their destructionH6; Yes, 19do not 20boastH1431H6310 In the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.13Do not enterH935 the gateH8179 of My peopleH5971 In the 21dayH3117 of their disasterH343. YesH1571, you, do not 22gloatH7200 over their calamityH7463 In the dayH3117 of their disasterH343. And do not 23lootH7971 their wealthH2428 In the dayH3117 of their disasterH343.14Do not 24standH5975 at the forkH6563 of the roadH6563 To cutH3772 downH3772 their fugitivesH6412; And do not imprisonH5462 their survivorsH8300 In the dayH3117 of their distressH6869.
15“For the 25dayH3117 of the LordH3068 drawsH7138 nearH7138 on allH3605 the nationsH1471. 26As you have doneH6213, it will be doneH6213 to you. Your 27dealingsH1576 will returnH7725 on your own headH7218.
