Obadiah 1:17-20

17But on Mount 1Zion there will be those who escape, And it will be holy. And the house of Jacob will 2possess their possessions.18Then the house of Jacob will be a 3fire And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be as stubble. And they will set 4them on fire and consume 5them, So that there will be 6no survivor of the house of Esau,” For the Lord has spoken.19Then those of the 7Negev will 8possess the mountain of Esau, And those of the 9Shephelah the 10Philistine plain; Also, 11possess the territory of Ephraim and the territory of Samaria, And Benjamin will possess Gilead.20And the exiles of this host of the sons of Israel, Who are among the Canaanites as far as 12Zarephath, And the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad Will possess the 13cities of the Negev.
