"But there will be a delivered remnant on Mount Zion. There will be holiness, and the house of Jacob will take back their possessions. "The house of Jacob will be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, but the house of Esau will be kindling. Then Jacob and Joseph will burn and consume Esau, and no survivor will remain from the house of Esau." Indeed, the Lord has spoken it.
