Isaiah 34:2-8

2 For the Lord’s ^aindignation is against all the nations,
And His wrath against all their armies;
He has ^{▼▼ Lit put under the ban
,} ^cutterly destroyed them,
He has given them over to ^dslaughter.
3 So their slain will be ^ethrown out,
And their corpses ^{▼▼ Lit their stench will go up}will give off their ^gstench,
And the mountains will ^{▼▼ Lit dissolve}be drenched with their ⁱblood.
4 And ^jall the host of heaven will ^{▼▼ Lit rot}wear away,
And the ^lsky will be rolled up like a scroll;
All their hosts will also wither away
As a leaf withers from the vine,
Or as one withers from the fig tree.
5 For ^mMy sword is satiated in heaven,
Behold it shall descend for judgment upon ⁿEdom
And upon the people whom I have ^odevoted to destruction.
6 The sword of the Lord is filled with blood,
It is ^{▼▼ Lit made fat}sated with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats,
With the fat of the kidneys of rams.
For the Lord has a sacrifice in ^qBozrah
And a great slaughter in the land of ^rEdom.
7 ^sWild oxen will also ^{▼▼ Lit go down}fall with them
And ^uyoung bulls with strong ones;
Thus their land will be ^vsoaked with blood,
And their dust ^{▼▼ Lit made fat}become greasy with fat.
8 For the Lord has a day of ^xvengeance,
A year of recompense for the ^{▼▼ Or controversy}cause of Zion.
