10 Because of the violence against your brother Jacob (he grasps the heel), you will be covered with shame and cut off forever. 11 On the day you stood aloof while strangers carried off his wealth and foreigners entered his gate and cast lots for Jerusalem (city of peace), you were just like one of them. 12 But you should not gloat in that day, your brother’s day of misfortune, nor rejoice over the people of Judah (praised) in the day of their destruction, nor boast proudly \nor enlarge your mouth/ in the day of their distress. 13 You should not enter the gate of My people in the day of their disaster, nor gloat over their affliction in the day of their disaster, nor loot their wealth in the day of their disaster. 14 Nor should you stand at the crossroads to cut off their fugitives, nor deliver up their survivors in the day of their distress. 15 For the Day of the LORD {Yowm YHWH} is near for all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you; your recompense will return upon your own head. Obadiah 1:10-15, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
