For thy violence against thy brother Jacob, shall shame, cover thee, - so shalt thou be cut off, to times age-abiding.

In the day when thou didst take thy stand over against him, in the day when foreigners took captive his forces, - and, aliens, entered his gates, and, over Jerusalem, cast lots, even thou, wast like one of them!

Do not, then, look with satisfaction upon the day of thy brother, upon the day of his calamity, Neither rejoice over the sons of Judah - in the day of their ruin, - nor enlarge thy mouth - in the day of distress:

Do not enter into the gate of my people - in the day of their misfortune, Do not, thou also, look with satisfaction on his misery - in the day of his misfortune; neither do thou thrust thy hands on his substance - in the day of his misfortune;

Neither do thou stand at the parting of the way, to cut off his fugitives, - neither do thou deliver up his survivors - in the day of distress.
