1:15 “For the day of the Lord
Just as you have done, so it will be done to you.
You will get exactly what your deeds deserve.
1:16 For just as you
so all the nations will drink continually.
They will drink, and they will gulp down;
they will be as though they had never been.
1:17 But on Mount Zion there will be a remnant of those who escape,
and it will be a holy place once again.
The descendants
those who had conquered them.
1:18 The descendants of Jacob will be a fire,
and the descendants of Joseph a flame.
The descendants of Esau will be like stubble.
They will burn them up and devour them.
There will not be a single survivor
Indeed, the Lord has spoken it.
