Because you have spoken this word,
I am going to make my words
become fire in your mouth.^(A)
These people are the wood,
and the fire will consume them.^(B)

¹⁸ Then the house of Jacob will be a blazing fire,^(A)
and the house of Joseph, a burning flame,
but the house of Esau will be stubble;
Jacob^[a] will set them on fire and consume Edom.^[b]
Therefore no survivor will remain^(B)
of the house of Esau,
for the Lord has spoken.
