8 Will I not on that day, declares the Lord,destroy the wise men out of Edom,and understanding out of Mount Esau?
9 And your mighty men shall be dismayed, O Teman,so that every man from Mount Esau will be cut off by slaughter.
10 Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob,shame shall cover you, and you shall be cut off forever.
11 On the day that you stood aloof, on the day that strangers carried off his wealthand foreigners entered his gates and cast lots for Jerusalem,you were like one of them.
12 But do not gloat over the day of your brotherin the day of his misfortune; do not rejoice over the people of Judahin the day of their ruin; do not boastin the day of distress.
13 Do not enter the gate of my peoplein the day of their calamity; do not gloat over his disasterin the day of his calamity; do not loot his wealthin the day of his calamity.
14 Do not stand at the crossroadsto cut off his fugitives;do not hand over his survivorsin the day of distress.
