A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]

6 At that time [06256] Rezin [07526] king [04428] of Syria [0758] recovered [07725] Elath [0359] to Syria [0758] [0130], and drave [05394] the Jews [03064] from Elath [0359]: and the Syrians [0726] came [0935] to Elath [0359], and dwelt [03427] there unto this day [03117].
11 And they offered [02076] unto the LORD [03068] the same time [03117], of the spoil [07998] which they had brought [0935], seven [07651] hundred [03967] oxen [01241] and seven [07651] thousand [0505] sheep [06629].
10 For thy violence [02555] against thy brother [0251] Jacob [03290] shame [0955] shall cover [03680] thee, and thou shalt be cut off [03772] for ever [05769].
11 In the day [03117] that thou stoodest [05975] on the other side, in the day [03117] that the strangers [02114] carried away captive [07617] his forces [02428], and foreigners [05237] entered [0935] into his gates [08179], and cast [03032] lots [01486] upon Jerusalem [03389], even thou wast as one [0259] of them.
12 But thou shouldest not have looked [07200] on the day [03117] of thy brother [0251] in the day [03117] that he became a stranger [05235]; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced [08055] over the children [01121] of Judah [03063] in the day [03117] of their destruction [06]; neither shouldest thou have spoken [06310] proudly [01431] in the day [03117] of distress [06869].
13 Thou shouldest not have entered [0935] into the gate [08179] of my people [05971] in the day [03117] of their calamity [0343]; yea, thou shouldest not have looked [07200] on their affliction [07451] in the day [03117] of their calamity [0343], nor have laid [07971] hands on their substance [02428] in the day [03117] of their calamity [0343];
14 Neither shouldest thou have stood [05975] in the crossway [06563], to cut off [03772] those of his that did escape [06412]; neither shouldest thou have delivered up [05462] those of his that did remain [08300] in the day [03117] of distress [06869].
5 Because thou hast had a perpetual [05769] hatred [0342], and hast shed [05064] the blood of the children [01121] of Israel [03478] by the force [03027] of the sword [02719] in the time [06256] of their calamity [0343], in the time [06256] that their iniquity [05771] had an end [07093]:
11 Thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068]; For three [07969] transgressions [06588] of Edom [0123], and for four [0702], I will not turn away [07725] the punishment thereof; because he did pursue [07291] his brother [0251] with the sword [02719], and did cast off [07843] all pity [07356], and his anger [0639] did tear [02963] perpetually [05703], and he kept [08104] his wrath [05678] for ever [05331]:
6 At that time [06256] Rezin [07526] king [04428] of Syria [0758] recovered [07725] Elath [0359] to Syria [0758] [0130], and drave [05394] the Jews [03064] from Elath [0359]: and the Syrians [0726] came [0935] to Elath [0359], and dwelt [03427] there unto this day [03117].
