Obadiah 12-16
English Standard Version
12 (A)But do not gloat over the day of your brother
in the day of his misfortune;
(B)do not rejoice over the people of Judah
in the day of their ruin;
(C)do not boast[a]
in the day of distress.
13 (D)Do not enter the gate of my people
in the day of their calamity;
(E)do not gloat over his disaster
in the day of his calamity;
(F)do not loot his wealth
in the day of his calamity.
14 (G)Do not stand at the crossroads
to cut off his fugitives;
do not hand over his survivors
in the day of distress.
The Day of the Lord Is Near
15 For (H)the day of the Lord is near upon all the nations.
(I)As you have done, it shall be done to you;
your deeds shall return on your own head.
16 (J)For as you have drunk on (K)my holy mountain,
so all the nations shall drink continually;
they shall drink and swallow,
and shall be as though they had never been.
