Obadiah 10-14

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁰ You will be covered with shame
and destroyed forever
because of violence done to your brother Jacob.^(A)
11 On the day you stood aloof,^(B)
on the day strangers captured his wealth,^[a]
while foreigners entered his city gate
and cast lots for Jerusalem,^(C)
you were just like one of them.^(D)
12 Do not^[b] gloat over your brother^(E)
in the day of his calamity;
do not rejoice over the people of Judah^(F)
in the day of their destruction;
do not boastfully mock^[c](G)
in the day of distress.^(H)
13 Do not enter my people’s city gate
in the day of their disaster.^(I)
Yes, you—do not gloat over their misery
in the day of their disaster,
and do not appropriate their possessions^(J)
in the day of their disaster.
¹⁴ Do not stand at the crossroads^[d](K)
to cut off their fugitives,
and do not hand over their survivors
in the day of distress.
