Institution of the Lord’s Supper

²³For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; ²⁴and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, ^[^a^]“Take, eat; this is My body which is ^[^b^]broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” ²⁵In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

“Obadiah

New King James Version

The Coming Judgment on Edom

¹The vision of Obadiah.

Thus says the Lord God concerning Edom
(We have heard a report from the Lord,
And a messenger has been sent among the nations, saying,
“Arise, and let us rise up against her for battle”):

²“Behold, I will make you small among the nations;
You shall be greatly despised.
³The pride of your heart has deceived you,
You who dwell in the clefts of the rock,
Whose habitation is high;
You who say in your heart, ‘Who will bring me down to the ground?’
⁴Though you ascend as high as the eagle,
And though you set your nest among the stars,
From there I will bring you down,” says the Lord.

⁵“If thieves had come to you,
If robbers by night—
Oh, how you will be cut off!—
Would they not have stolen till they had enough?
If grape-gatherers had come to you,
Would they not have left some gleanings?

⁶“Oh, how Esau shall be searched out!
How his hidden treasures shall be sought after!
⁷All the men in your confederacy
Shall force you to the border;
The men at peace with you
Shall deceive you and prevail against you.
Those who eat your bread shall lay a ^[^a^]trap for you.
No^[^b^] one is aware of it.

⁸“Will I not in that day,” says the Lord,
“Even destroy the wise men from Edom,
And understanding from the mountains of Esau?
⁹Then your mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed,
To the end that everyone from the mountains of Esau
May be cut off by slaughter.

Edom Mistreated His Brother

¹⁰“For violence against your brother Jacob,
Shame shall cover you,
And you shall be cut off forever.
¹¹In the day that you stood on the other side—
In the day that strangers carried captive his forces,
When foreigners entered his gates
And cast lots for Jerusalem—
Even you were as one of them.

¹²“But you should not have gazed^[^c^] on the day of your brother
^[^d^]In the day of his captivity;
Nor should you have rejoiced over the children of Judah
In the day of their destruction;
Nor should you have spoken proudly
In the day of distress.
¹³You should not have entered the gate of My people
In the day of their calamity.
Indeed, you should not have ^[^e^]gazed on their affliction
In the day of their calamity,
Nor laid hands on their substance
In the day of their calamity.
¹⁴You should not have stood at the crossroads
To cut off those among them who escaped;
Nor should you have ^[^f^]delivered up those among them who remained
In the day of distress.

¹⁵“For the day of the Lord upon all the nations is near;
As you have done, it shall be done to you;
Your ^[^g^]reprisal shall return upon your own head.
¹⁶For 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.

Israel’s Final Triumph

¹⁷“But on Mount Zion there shall be ^[^h^]deliverance,
And there shall be holiness;
The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
¹⁸The house of Jacob shall be a fire,
And the house of Joseph a 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.

¹⁹The ^[ⁱ^]South shall possess the mountains of Esau,
And the Lowland shall possess Philistia.
They shall possess the fields of Ephraim
And the fields of Samaria.
Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
²⁰And the captives of this host of the children of Israel
Shall possess the land of the Canaanites
As far as Zarephath.
The captives of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad
Shall possess the cities of the ^[^j^]South.
²¹Then saviors^[^k^] shall come to Mount Zion
To judge the mountains of Esau,
And the kingdom shall be the Lord’s.
