17 But on Mt. Tsiyyon (‘Zion’), there’ll be deliverance,

and it will be holy,

≈ Yisrael’s people will reclaim their possessions.

18 Yisrael’s people will be a fire,

≈ and Yosef’s descendants will be a flame.

None of Esau’s descendants will survive,

because Yahweh has spoken.

19 The people from the Negev will take ownership of Esau’s mountain,

≈ and the people from the Shefelah will take ownership of the Philistines’ land.

They will recapture the Efrayim and Samarian countrysides,

≈ and the people of Benyamin will recapture Gilead.

20 Yisrael’s exiles will take ownership of the Canaanites’ land as far as Tsarefat,

≈ and the exiles from Yerushalem (who are in Sefarad) will take ownership of the cities of the Negev.

21 The rescuers will go up Mt. Tsiyyon/Zion to judge Esau’s mountain.

and Yahweh will be their king.
