Obadiah 10-14
World English Bible
10 For the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you, and you will be cut off forever. 11 In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots for Jerusalem, even you were like one of them. 12 But don’t look down on your brother in the day of his disaster, and don’t rejoice over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction. Don’t speak proudly in the day of distress. 13 Don’t enter into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity. Don’t look down on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither seize their wealth on the day of their calamity. 14 Don’t stand in the crossroads to cut off those of his who escape. Don’t deliver up those of his who remain in the day of distress.

Obadiah 10-14
New American Standard Bible
10 “Because of (A)violence to your brother Jacob,
Shame will cover you,
(B)And you will be eliminated 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 [a]gloat over your brother’s day,
The day of his misfortune.
And (G)do not rejoice over the sons of Judah
On the day of their destruction;
Yes, (H)do not [b]boast
On the day of their distress.
13 Do not enter the gate of My people
On the (I)day of their disaster.
You indeed, do not [c]gloat over their catastrophe
On the day of their disaster.
And do not (J)lay a hand on their wealth
On the day of their disaster.
14 Do not (K)stand at the crossroads
To eliminate their survivors;
And do not hand over their refugees
On the day of their distress.
