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 like 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 6 7possess the mountain of Esau, And those of the 8Shephelah the 9Philistine plain; Also, 10they will 11possess 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 12Zarephath, And the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad, Will 13possess the 14cities of the Negev.21 15The 16deliverers will ascend Mount Zion To judge the mountain of Esau, And the 17kingdom will be the Lord’s.
