11 (A)On the day that you stood aloof,
    (B)on the day that strangers carried off his wealth
and foreigners entered his gates
    (C)and cast lots for Jerusalem,
    you were like one of them.
12 (D)But do not gloat over the day of your brother
    in the day of his misfortune;
(E)do not rejoice over the people of Judah
    in the day of their ruin;
(F)do not boast[a]
    in the day of distress.
13 (G)Do not enter the gate of my people
    in the day of their calamity;
(H)do not gloat over his disaster
    in the day of his calamity;
(I)do not loot his wealth
    in the day of his calamity.
