7. Everyone who has a treaty with you will drive you to the border;everyone at peace with youwill deceive and conquer you.Those who eat your bread will set a trap for you.He will be unaware of it.
8. In that day —this is the Lord’s declaration —will I not eliminate the wise ones of Edom and those who understandfrom the hill country of Esau?
9. Teman, your warriors will be terrifiedso that everyone from the hill country of Esauwill be destroyed by slaughter.
10. You will be covered with shameand destroyed foreverbecause of violence done to your brother Jacob.
11. On the day you stood aloof, on the day strangers captured his wealth, while foreigners entered his gateand cast lots for Jerusalem, you were just like one of them.
12. Do not gloat over your brother in the day of his calamity;do not rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction;do not boastfully mock in the day of distress.
13. Do not enter the gate of My peoplein the day of their disaster. Yes, you — do not gloat over their miseryin the day of their disasterand do not appropriate their possessions in the day of their disaster.
14. Do not stand at the crossroads to cut off their fugitives,and do not hand over their survivorsin the day of distress.
15. For the Day of the Lord is near,against all the nations. As you have done, so it will be done to you;what you deserve will return on your own head.
16. As you have drunk on My holy mountain, so all the nations will drink continually. They will drink and gulp downand be as though they had never been.
17. But there will be a deliverance on Mount Zion, and it will be holy; the house of Jacob will dispossess those who dispossessed them.
