Obadiah 11-13
American Standard Version
11 In the day that thou stoodest [a]on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his [b]substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them. 12 But look not thou on the day of thy brother in [c]the day of his disaster, and rejoice not over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither speak proudly in the day of distress. 13 Enter not into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, look not thou on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither lay ye hands on their substance in the day of their calamity.

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.
