Obadiah 13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³They are my people,
    and you were cruel to them.
You went through their towns,
sneering and stealing
    whatever was left.
¹⁴In their time of torment,
    you ambushed refugees
and handed them over
    to their attackers.

The Lord Will Judge the Nations

¹⁵The day is coming
when I, the Lord,
will judge the nations.
And, Edom, you will pay in full
for what you have done.
