Obadiah 1:10-14

Obadiah 1:10-14

[10] For thy violence  against thy brother  Jacob  shame  shall cover  thee, and thou shalt be cut off  for ever.  [11] In 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 cast  lots  upon Jerusalem,  even thou wast as one  of them. [12] But thou shouldest not have looked  on the day  of thy brother  in the day  neither shouldest thou have rejoiced  over the children  of Judah  in the day  of their destruction;  neither shouldest thou have spoken  proudly  in the day  of distress.  [13] Thou shouldest not have entered  into the gate  of my people  in the day  of their calamity;  yea, thou shouldest not have looked  on their affliction  in the day  of their calamity,  nor have laid  hands on their substance  in the day  of their calamity;  [14] Neither shouldest thou have stood  in the crossway,  to cut off  those of his that did escape;  neither shouldest thou have delivered up  those of his that did remain  in the day  of distress.
