Obadiah 1:8-15
8Will I not on that day,” declares the Lord, “1Eliminate wise men from Edom, And understanding from the mountain of Esau?9Then your 2warriors will be filled with terror, 3Teman, So that everyone will be 4eliminated from the mountain of Esau by murder.
10“Because of 5violence to your brother Jacob, Shame will cover you, 6And you will be eliminated forever.11On the day that you 7stood aloof, On the day that strangers carried off his wealth, And foreigners entered his gate And 8cast lots for Jerusalem-- 9You too were as one of them.1210Do not 11gloat over your brother’s day, The day of his misfortune. And 12do not rejoice over the sons of Judah On the day of their destruction; Yes, 13do not 14boast On the day of their distress.13Do not enter the gate of My people On the 15day of their disaster. You indeed, do not 16gloat over their catastrophe On the day of their disaster. And do not 17lay a hand on their wealth On the day of their disaster.14Do not 18stand at the crossroads To eliminate their survivors; And do not hand over their refugees On the day of their distress.
15“For the 19day of the Lord is near for all the nations. 20Just as you have done, it will be done to you. Your 21dealings will return on your own head.
