Obadiah 18-20
Legacy Standard Bible
18 Then the house of Jacob will be a (A)fire
And the house of Joseph a flame;
But the house of Esau will be as stubble.
And they will set [a]them on fire and consume [b]them
So that there will be (B)no survivor of the house of Esau,”
For Yahweh has spoken.
The Kingdom of Yahweh
19 Then those of the [c]Negev will (C)possess the mountain of Esau,
And those of the [d]Shephelah, the (D)Philistine plain;
And they will (E)possess the territory of Ephraim and the territory of Samaria,
And Benjamin will possess Gilead.
20 And the exiles of this [e]military force of the sons of Israel,
Who are among the Canaanites as far as (F)Zarephath,
And the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad,
Will possess the (G)cities of the Negev.
