Obadiah 9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 Warriors from the city of Teman[a]
will be terrified,
and you descendants of Esau[b]
will be wiped out.
The Lord Condemns Edom's Cruelty
10 You were cruel to your relatives,
the descendants of Jacob.[c]
Now you will be destroyed,
disgraced forever.
11 You stood there and watched
as foreigners entered Jerusalem
and took what they wanted.
In fact, you were no better
than those foreigners.
Obadiah 9-11
New International Version
9 Your warriors, Teman,(A) will be terrified,
and everyone in Esau’s mountains
will be cut down in the slaughter.
10 Because of the violence(B) against your brother Jacob,(C)
you will be covered with shame;
you will be destroyed forever.(D)
11 On the day you stood aloof
while strangers carried off his wealth
and foreigners entered his gates
and cast lots(E) for Jerusalem,
you were like one of them.(F)
