⁸ In that day –
this is the Lord’s declaration –
will I not eliminate the wise ones of Edom^(A)
and those who understand
from the hill country of Esau?

¹⁸ Then the house of Jacob will be a blazing fire,^(A)
and the house of Joseph, a burning flame,
but the house of Esau will be stubble;
Jacob^[a] will set them on fire and consume Edom.^[b]
Therefore no survivor will remain^(B)
of the house of Esau,
for the Lord has spoken.
