Obadiah 1:8-12

Obadiah 1:8

On that day, declares the Lord, I will destroy the wise men of Edom—there will be no more wisdom in the mountains of Esau.

Obadiah 1:9

Teman, your fighting men will be terrified, so that everyone of the mountains of Esau will be cut down in the massacre.

Obadiah 1:10

Because of the violence you committed against your brothers, the descendants of Jacob, you will be totally ashamed of yourselves, and destroyed forever.

Obadiah 1:11

On that day you stood aside, on that day strangers plundered their wealth and foreigners entered their gates, and divided up Jerusalem by casting lots—and you were like one of them.

Obadiah 1:12

You should not have gloated over your brother's day of disaster. You should not have rejoiced over the day of destruction of the sons of Judah. You should not have boasted over the day of their distress.
