Obadiah 9-11
Amplified Bible
9
“And your mighty men shall be dismayed and demoralized, O [a]Teman,
So that everyone from the mountain of Esau may be cut off in the slaughter.
Edom Denounced
10
“Because of the violence you did against your brother Jacob,
Shame shall cover you [completely],
And you shall be cut off forever.
11
“On the day that [Jerusalem was destroyed] you stood aloof [from your brother Jacob]—
On the day that strangers took his forces captive and carried off his wealth,
And foreigners entered his gates
And cast lots for Jerusalem [dividing the city for plunder]—
You too were like one of them [collaborating with the enemy].(A)
