[1:10] “Because you robbed and killed your relatives, the descendants of Jacob, you will be destroyed and dishonored forever.
[1:11] You stood aside on that day when enemies broke down their gates. You were as bad as those strangers who carried off Jerusalem's wealth and divided it among themselves.
[1:12] You should not have gloated over the misfortune of your relatives in Judah. You should not have been glad on the day of their ruin. You should not have laughed at them in their distress.
[1:13] You should not have entered the city of my people to gloat over their suffering and to seize their riches on the day of their disaster.
[1:14] You should not have stood at the crossroads to catch those trying to escape. You should not have handed them over to the enemy on the day of their distress.
