Compare all
15 “Fora the day of the Lord upon all the nations is near;
bAs you have done, it shall be done to you;
Your1 reprisal shall return upon your own head. 
16 aFor as you drank on My holy mountain,
So shall all the nations drink continually;
Yes, they shall drink, and swallow,
And they shall be as though they had never been.

17 “But on Mount Zion there ashall be deliverance,
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. 
19 The1 South ashall possess the mountains of Esau,
bAnd the Lowland shall possess Philistia.
They shall possess the fields of Ephraim
And the fields of Samaria.
Benjamin shall possess Gilead. 
20 And the captives of this host of the children of Israel
Shall possess the land of the Canaanites
As afar as Zarephath.
The captives of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad
bShall possess the cities of the1 South.
