Obadiah 1:15-18

15“For the 1day of the Lord draws near on all the nations. 2As you have done, it will be done to you. Your 3dealings will return on your own head.16Because just as you 4drank on 5My holy mountain, All the nations 6will drink continually. They will drink and 7swallow And become as if they had never existed.17But on Mount 8Zion there will be those who escape, And it will be holy. And the house of Jacob will 9possess their possessions.18Then the house of Jacob will be a 10fire And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be as stubble. And they will set 11them on fire and consume 12them, So that there will be 13no survivor of the house of Esau,” For the Lord has spoken.
