Obadiah 10-12

Modern English Version

¹⁰ For the slaughter and the violence done to your brother Jacob,
    shame shall cover you,
    and you shall be cut off forever.
¹¹ On the day that you stood aside,
    on the day that strangers carried off his wealth,
and foreigners entered his gates
    and cast lots on Jerusalem,
    you also were like one of them.
¹² But you should not have gloated
    on the day of your brother,
    on the day of his misfortune;
you should not have rejoiced over the children of Judah
    on the day of their destruction;
you should not have boasted
    on the day of distress.
