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 2 3possess their 4property.18Then the house of Jacob will be a 5fire, And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be like stubble. And they will set 6them on fire and consume 7them, So that there will be 8no survivor of the house of Esau,” For the Lord has spoken.19Then those of the 9Negev will 10 11possess the mountain of Esau, And those of the 12Shephelah the 13Philistine plain; Also, 14they will 15possess 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 16Zarephath, And the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad, Will 17possess the 18cities of the Negev.
