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 On the day of their destruction; Yes, 4do not 5boast On the day of their distress.13Do not enter the gate of My people On the 6day of their disaster. You indeed, do not 7gloat over their catastrophe On the day of their disaster. And do not 8lay a hand on their wealth On the day of their disaster.14Do not 9stand at the crossroads To eliminate their survivors; And do not hand over their refugees On the day of their distress.
15“For the 10day of the Lord is near for all the nations. 11Just as you have done, it will be done to you. Your 12dealings will return on your own head.16For just as you 13drank on 14My holy mountain, All the nations 15will drink continually. They will drink 16to the last drop, 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 1819possess their 20property.18Then the house of Jacob will be a 21fire, And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be like stubble. And they will set 22them on fire and consume 23them, So that there will be 24no survivor of the house of Esau,” For the Lord has spoken.
