Obadiah 15-18
Legacy Standard Bible
The Day of Yahweh Is Near
15 “For the (A)day of Yahweh draws near on all the nations.
(B)As you have done, it will be done to you.
Your (C)dealings will return on your own head.
16 Because just as you all (D)drank on (E)My holy mountain,
All the nations (F)will drink continually.
They will drink and [a]swallow,
And they will be as if they never were.
17 But on Mount (G)Zion there will be those who escape,
And it will be holy.
And the house of Jacob will (H)possess their possessions.
18 Then the house of Jacob will be a (I)fire
And the house of Joseph a flame;
But the house of Esau will be as stubble.
And they will set [b]them on fire and consume [c]them
So that there will be (J)no survivor of the house of Esau,”
For Yahweh has spoken.

Evangelical Heritage Version
A Message to All Nations
15 Yes, the Day of the Lord is near for all the nations! As you have done, it will be done to you. Your deeds will return upon your own head. 16 For just as you Edomites[a] have drunk on my holy mountain, so also all the nations will drink continually. Yes, they will drink and guzzle it down, and it will be as though the Edomites never existed.
17 But on Mount Zion, there will be some who escape, and it will be holy. The house of Jacob will recapture its territory. 18 The house of Jacob will be a fire, the house of Joseph a flame, but the house of Esau will be stubble. The Israelites[b] set them on fire and consume them. There will not be any survivors for the house of Esau.
Yes, the Lord has spoken.
