10 “Because of (A)violence to your brother Jacob,
[a]You will be covered with shame,
(B)And you will be cut off forever.
11 “On the day that you (C)stood aloof,
On the day that strangers carried off his wealth,
And foreigners entered his gate
And (D)cast lots for Jerusalem—
(E)You too were as one of them.
12 (F)Do not [b]gloat over your brother’s day,
The day of his misfortune.
And (G)do not rejoice over the sons of Judah
In the day of their destruction;
Yes, (H)do not [c]boast
In the day of their distress.
