Obadiah 10–16

^10vFor thy ^wviolence against ^xthy brother Jacob shame ^wshall cover thee,

And ^ythou shalt be cut off for ever.

^11vIn the day that thou stoodest on the other side,

In the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces,

And foreigners entered into his gates,

And ^acast lots upon Jerusalem,

Even thou wast as one of them.

¹²But thou shouldest not have ^blooked on ^cthe day of thy brother in the day ^dthat he became a stranger;

Neither shouldest thou have ^erejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction;

Neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.

¹³Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people ^fin the day of their calamity:

Yea, thou shouldest not have ^blooked on their affliction in the day of their calamity,

^gNor have ^hlaid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity;

¹⁴Neither shouldest thou have stood in ⁱthe crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape;

Neither shouldest thou have delivered up ^kthose of his that did remain in the day of distress.

^15lmFor the day of the Lord is near ^mupon all the heathen:

ⁿAs thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee;

^oThy reward shall return upon thine own head.

¹⁶For ^pas ye have drunk upon ^qmy holy mountain,

So ^pshall all the heathen drink continually,

Yea, ^pthey shall drink, and they shall swallow down,

And ^rthey shall be as though they had not been.
