14 You should not have stood at the crossroads
To cut off those among them who escaped;
Nor should you have1 delivered up those among them who remained
In the day of distress.

So shall all the nations drink continually;
Yes, they shall drink, and swallow,
And they shall be as though they had never been.

Israel’s Final Triumph
17 “But on Mount Zion there ashall be deliverance,
And there shall be holiness;
The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
And there shall be holiness;
The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
18 The house of Jacob shall be a fire,
And the house of Joseph aa flame;
But the house of Esau shall be stubble;
They shall kindle them and devour them,
And no survivor shall remain of the house of Esau,”
For the Lord has spoken.

But the house of Esau shall be stubble;
They shall kindle them and devour them,
And no survivor shall remain of the house of Esau,”
For the Lord has spoken.
