Obadiah 17-19
New American Standard Bible
17 But on Mount (A)Zion there will be those who escape,
And it will be holy.
And the house of Jacob will [a](B)possess their [b]property.
18 Then the house of Jacob will be a (C)fire,
And the house of Joseph a flame;
But the house of Esau will be like stubble.
And they will set [c]them on fire and consume [d]them,
So that there will be (D)no survivor of the house of Esau,”
For the Lord has spoken.
19 Then those of the [e]Negev will [f](E)possess the mountain of Esau,
And those of the [g]Shephelah the (F)Philistine plain;
Also, (G)they will [h]possess the territory of Ephraim and the territory of Samaria,
And Benjamin the territory of Gilead.
