Your 3dealingsH1576 will returnH7725 on your own headH7218.16For justH3512 asH3512 you 4drankH8354 on 5My holyH6944 mountainH2022, AllH3605 the nationsH1471 6will drinkH8354 continuallyH8548. They will drinkH8354 7toH3886 theH3886 lastH3886 dropH3886, And becomeH1961 as if they had neverH3808 existedH1961.17But on MountH2022 8ZionH6726 there will be those whoH6413 escapeH6413, And it will be holyH6944. And the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 will 910possessH3423 their 11propertyH4180.18Then the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 will be a 12fireH784, And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 a flameH3852; But the houseH1004 of EsauH6215 will be like stubbleH7179. And they will setH1814 13them onH1814 fireH1814 and consumeH398 14them, So that there will be 15noH3808 survivorH8300 of the houseH1004 of EsauH6215,” For the LordH3068 has spokenH1696.19Then those of the 16NegevH5045 will 1718possessH3423 the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215, And those of the 19ShephelahH8219 the 20PhilistineH6430 plain; Also, 21they will 22possessH3423 the territoryH7704 of EphraimH669 and the territoryH7704 of SamariaH8111, And BenjaminH1144 the territory of GileadH1568.20And the exilesH1546 of thisH2088 armyH2426 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, WhoH834 are among the CanaanitesH3669 as farH5704 as 23ZarephathH6886, And the exilesH1546 of JerusalemH3389 whoH834 are in SepharadH5614, Will 24possessH3423 the 25citiesH5892 of the NegevH5045.2126The 27deliverersH3467 will ascendH5927 MountH2022 ZionH6726 To judgeH8199 the mountainH2022 of EsauH6215, And the 28kingdomH4410 will be the Lord’sH3068.
