You should not have looted
1:12 You should not
You should not have rejoiced over the people of Judah when they were destroyed.
You should not have boasted
1:14 You should not have stood at the fork in the road
You should not have captured their refugees when they suffered adversity.
1:5 “If thieves came to rob you
they would steal only as much as they wanted!
If grape pickers came to harvest your vineyards,
they would leave some behind for the poor!
But you will be totally destroyed!
1:8 At that time,”
“I will destroy the wise sages of Edom!
the advisers
1:16 For just as you
so all the nations will drink continually.
They will drink, and they will gulp down;
they will be as though they had never been.
1:18 The descendants of Jacob will be a fire,
and the descendants of Joseph a flame.
The descendants of Esau will be like stubble.
They will burn them up and devour them.
There will not be a single survivor
Indeed, the Lord has spoken it.
1:7 All your allies
Your treaty partners
Your trusted friends
that will take you by surprise!
