Obadiah 15-21

English Standard Version

¹⁵ For ^(A)the day of the Lord is near upon all the nations.
^(B)As you have done, it shall be done to you;
    your deeds shall return on your own head.
^16 (C)For as you have drunk on ^(D)my holy mountain,
    so all the nations shall drink continually;
they shall drink and swallow,
    and shall be as though they had never been.
^17 (E)But in Mount Zion there shall be those who escape,
    and it shall be holy,
^(F)and the house of Jacob shall possess their own possessions.
^18 (G)The house of Jacob shall be a fire,
    and the house of Joseph a flame,
    and the house of Esau ^(H)stubble;
they shall burn them and consume them,
    ^(I)and there shall be no survivor for the house of Esau,
for the Lord has spoken.

¹⁹ Those of ^(J)the Negeb ^(K)shall possess ^(L)Mount Esau,
    and those of the Shephelah shall possess ^(M)the land of the Philistines;
they shall possess the land of Ephraim and the land of ^(N)Samaria,
    and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
²⁰ The exiles of this host of the people of Israel
    shall possess the land of the Canaanites as far as ^(O)Zarephath,
and the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad
    shall possess the cities of the Negeb.
^21 (P)Saviors shall go up to Mount Zion
    to rule ^(Q)Mount Esau,
    and ^(R)the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
