If you
come on your enemy's ox or donkey straying, you will take it back to him. 5 If you see the donkey of someone who hates you fallen
under its load, do not stand back; you must go and help him with it.
Have I rejoiced at my
enemy's misfortune, or exulted when disaster overtook him?
No one
who laughs at distress will go unpunished.
Should
your enemy fall, do not rejoice, when he stumbles do not let your heart exult: 18 for fear that Yahweh will be displeased at the sight and
turn his anger away from him.
Do not mock the one who wears only a
loin-cloth, or scoff at a person’s bitter day.
Since
you rejoiced because the heritage of the House of Israel had been laid waste, I
shall do the same to you, Mount Seir; and you will become a waste, and so will
the whole of Edom
Do not
feast your eyes on your brother on the day of his misfortune. Do not gloat over
the children of Judah on the day of their ruin. Do not play the braggart on the
day of distress.
