You need to enchant it at an enchanting table, and hope you get the Fire Aspect enchantment.
First of all you need an Enchanting Table, which can be made by, in a crafting table, on the first row middle slot put one book, on the second row put diamond/obsidian/diamond and on the bottom row put obsidian/obsidian/obsidian like this: =B= DOD OOO = is nothing D is diamond O is obsidian. Once you have an Enchanting Table, take a crafted items but only things such as tools or weapons. This is the list: any type of: pickaxes axes hoes [the farming kind] shovels swords helmets chestplates [includes chainmail] pants shoes *I may have missed some *excluding items such as the fishing rod, bow, arrows, sheers, etc. As far as I can remember that is all you can enchant currently as of 1.0.0. to enchant your item, open the Enchanting Table screen after placing by right-clicking, then put your item in the slot on the left above your inventory. The enchanting number is random, but can be made higher by placing bookshelves within two blocks [leaving a one block space] of the Enchanting Table. You need experience to enchant items which can be achieved by killing mobs and picking up the experience which fills your experience bar, which is above your heath and hunger bars. Good luck and Happy Minecrafting!! -FrozenWizard
The green bar under your health and your hunger is the experience bar. If you craft an enchantment table, you can pay experience to enchant tools and weapons.
Go to an enchanting table and place the stone sword in the square. Then, click one of three tan boxes with green letters in them. Click one and your exp levels will be deducted on how many you have and how many you clicked on. (The green bar on top of your hotbar is your exp enchanting level) You should have an enchanted sword then.
