Obadiah 1:15-21
Obadiah 1:15-21 TPT
“The day of YAHWEH is drawing near for all the nations. As you have done to others, so will it be done to you: you will be paid back for all that your deeds deserve. “Just as you have drunk and caroused on my sacred hill, so all the surrounding nations will drink continually from my bitter cup of judgment. They will drink and drink and gulp it down, but they will stagger and be destroyed.” “But on Mount Zion a remnant will escape, for that place will be a reconsecrated sanctuary. And Jacob’s tribes will possess what is rightfully theirs by inheritance. Then the people of Judah will be a fire, the people of Israel a flame, and the people of Esau like stubble. They will set them on fire and consume them, and there will be no survivors from Esau’s descendants. I, YAHWEH, have spoken.” People from southern Judah will capture Edom; those from the western foothills will occupy Philistia; Israelites will take back the territory of Ephraim and Samaria; and the people of Benjamin will possess Gilead. The company of exiles from among the people of Israel will possess the land of the Canaanites as far as Zarephath while the exiles from Jerusalem now in Sardis will occupy the cities of southern Judah. Victorious deliverers will go out from Mount Zion to rule over the land of Edom, and the kingdom will be YAHWEH’s.
