Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thine heart hath lifted thee up: glory [of this], and tarry at home: for why shouldest thou meddle to [thy] hurt, that thou shouldest fall, [even] thou, and Judah with thee?
Thou hast indeed {H5221} smitten {H5221} Edom {H123}, and thine heart {H3820} hath lifted thee up {H5375}: glory {H3513} of this, and tarry {H3427} at home {H1004}: for why shouldest thou meddle {H1624} to thy hurt {H7451}, that thou shouldest fall {H5307}, even thou, and Judah {H3063} with thee?
True, you have defeated Edom, and now you're ambitious. So enjoy the glory, but stay home! Why provoke calamity, to your own ruin, yours and Y'hudah's too?"
You have indeed defeated Edom, and your heart has become proud. Glory in that and stay at home. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”
Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thy heart hath lifted thee up: glory thereof, and abide at home; for why shouldest thou meddle to thy hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?
