Obadiah 1:18-21

18Then the house of Jacob will be a 1fire And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be as stubble. And they will set 2them on fire and consume 3them, So that there will be 4no survivor of the house of Esau,” For the Lord has spoken.19Then those of the 5Negev will 6possess the mountain of Esau, And those of the 7Shephelah the 8Philistine plain; Also, 9possess 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 10Zarephath, And the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad Will possess the 11cities of the Negev.21The 12deliverers will ascend Mount Zion To judge the mountain of Esau, And the 13kingdom will be the Lord’s.
