10 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.

11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.

10 Because of the violence(A) against your brother Jacob,(B)
    you will be covered with shame;
    you will be destroyed forever.(C)
11 On the day you stood aloof
    while strangers carried off his wealth
and foreigners entered his gates
    and cast lots(D) for Jerusalem,
    you were like one of them.(E)
12 You should not gloat(F) over your brother
    in the day of his misfortune,(G)
nor rejoice(H) over the people of Judah
    in the day of their destruction,(I)
nor boast(J) so much
    in the day of their trouble.(K)
