Isaiah 34:1-2
Judgment on the Nations
1 Draw near, aO nations, to hear,and give attention, O peoples!
Let the earth hear, and all that fills it;
the world, and all that comes from it.
2For the Lord is enraged against all the nations,
and furious against all their host;
he has bdevoted them to destruction, ▼
▼That is, set apart ( devoted) as an offering to the Lord (for destruction); also verse 5
has given them over for slaughter.Isaiah 34:4
4 dAll the host of heaven shall rot away,and the skies roll up like a scroll.
All their host shall fall,
as leaves fall from the vine,
like leaves falling from the fig tree.
Isaiah 34:8-10
8 eFor the Lord has a day of vengeance,a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
9 fAnd the streams of Edom ▼
▼Hebrew her streams
shall be turned into pitch,and her soil into sulfur;
her land shall become burning pitch.
10Night and day hit shall not be quenched;
iits smoke shall go up forever.
jFrom generation to generation it shall lie waste;
none shall pass through it forever and ever.
