Edom's Violence Against Jacob

¹⁰^(A)Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob,
    shame shall cover you,
    ^(B)and you shall be cut off forever.
¹¹^(C)On the day that you stood aloof,
    ^(D)on the day that strangers carried off his wealth
and foreigners entered his gates
    ^(E)and cast lots for Jerusalem,
    you were like one of them.
¹²^(F)But do not gloat over the day of your brother
    in the day of his misfortune;
^(G)do not rejoice over the people of Judah
    in the day of their ruin;
^(H)do not boast^[a]
    in the day of distress.
¹³^(I)Do not enter the gate of my people
    in the day of their calamity;
^(J)do not gloat over his disaster
    in the day of his calamity;
^(K)do not loot his wealth
    in the day of his calamity.
¹⁴^(L)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

¹⁵For ^(M)the day of the Lord is near upon all the nations.
^(N)As you have done, it shall be done to you;
    your deeds shall return on your own head.
¹⁶^(O)For as you have drunk on ^(P)my holy mountain,
    so all the nations shall drink continually;
they shall drink and swallow,
    and shall be as though they had never been.

²^(A)I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
