Obadiah 15-18
New International Version
15 “The day of the Lord is near(A)
for all nations.
As you have done, it will be done to you;
your deeds(B) will return upon your own head.
16 Just as you drank(C) on my holy hill,(D)
so all the nations will drink(E) continually;
they will drink and drink
and be as if they had never been.(F)
17 But on Mount Zion will be deliverance;(G)
it will be holy,(H)
and Jacob will possess his inheritance.(I)
18 Jacob will be a fire
and Joseph a flame;
Esau will be stubble,
and they will set him on fire(J) and destroy(K) him.
There will be no survivors(L)
from Esau.”
The Lord has spoken.

Judgment of the Nations
15 For the day of the Lord(A) is near,
against all the nations.(B)
As you have done,(C) it will be done to you;
what you deserve will return on your own head.(D)
16 As you have drunk on my holy mountain,(E)
so all the nations will drink continually.(F)
They will drink and gulp down
and be as though they had never been.
17 But there will be a deliverance on Mount Zion,(G)
and it will be holy;(H)
the house of Jacob will dispossess(I)
those who dispossessed them.[a](J)
18 Then the house of Jacob will be a blazing fire,(K)
and the house of Joseph, a burning flame,
but the house of Esau will be stubble;
Jacob[b] will set them on fire and consume Edom.[c]
Therefore no survivor will remain(L)
of the house of Esau,
for the Lord has spoken.
