Commands That Edom Broke

12 “Edom, do not laugh at your brother Israel in his time of trouble
or be happy about the people of Judah when they are destroyed.
    Do not brag when cruel things are done to them.
13 Do not enter the city gate of my people
    in their time of trouble
or laugh at their problems
    in their time of trouble.
Do not take their treasures
    in their time of trouble.
14 Do not stand at the crossroads
    to destroy those who are trying to escape.
Do not capture those who escape alive and turn them over to their enemy
    in their time of trouble.
