Obadiah 1:16-21
16For just as you 1drank on 2My holy mountain, All the nations 3will drink continually. They will drink 4to the last drop, And become as if they had never existed.17But on Mount 5Zion there will be those who escape, And it will be holy. And the house of Jacob will 67possess their 8property.18Then the house of Jacob will be a 9fire, And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be like stubble. And they will set 10them on fire and consume 11them, So that there will be 12no survivor of the house of Esau,” For the Lord has spoken.19Then those of the 13Negev will 1415possess the mountain of Esau, And those of the 16Shephelah the 17Philistine plain; Also, 18they will 19possess the territory of Ephraim and the territory of Samaria, And Benjamin the territory of Gilead.20And the exiles of this army of the sons of Israel, Who are among the Canaanites as far as 20Zarephath, And the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad, Will 21possess the 22cities of the Negev.2123The 24deliverers will ascend Mount Zion To judge the mountain of Esau, And the 25kingdom will be the Lord’s.
