Obadiah 11-13
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
11 On the day that you stood aloof [from your brother Jacob]—on the day that strangers took captive his forces and carried off his wealth, and foreigners entered into his gates and cast lots for Jerusalem—you were even as one of them.(A)
12 But you should not have gloated over your brother’s day, the day when his misfortune came and he was made a stranger; you should not have rejoiced over the sons of Judah in the day of their ruin; you should not have spoken arrogantly in the day of their distress.
13 You should not have entered the gate of My people in the day of their calamity and ruin; yes, you should not have looked [with delight] on their misery in the day of their calamity and ruin, and not have reached after their army and their possessions in the day of their calamity and ruin.

Obadiah 11-13
New International Version
11 On the day you stood aloof
while strangers carried off his wealth
and foreigners entered his gates
and cast lots(A) for Jerusalem,
you were like one of them.(B)
12 You should not gloat(C) over your brother
in the day of his misfortune,(D)
nor rejoice(E) over the people of Judah
in the day of their destruction,(F)
nor boast(G) so much
in the day of their trouble.(H)
13 You should not march through the gates of my people
in the day of their disaster,
nor gloat over them in their calamity(I)
in the day of their disaster,
nor seize their wealth
in the day of their disaster.
