# Chapter 34
|
|
1. Come near, you nations, to hear;
|
|
And heed, you people!
|
|
Let the earth hear, and all that is in it,
|
|
The world and all things that come forth from it.
|
|
|
|
2. For the indignation of the Lord is against all nations,
|
|
And His fury against all their armies;
|
|
He has utterly destroyed them,
|
|
He has given them over to the slaughter.
|
|
|
|
3. Also their slain shall be thrown out;
|
|
Their stench shall rise from their corpses,
|
|
And the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
|
|
|
|
4. All the host of heaven shall be dissolved,
|
|
And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll;
|
|
All their host shall fall down
|
|
As the leaf falls from the vine,
|
|
And as fruit falling from a fig tree.
|
|
|
|
5. "For My sword shall be bathed in heaven;
|
|
Indeed it shall come down on Edom,
|
|
And on the people of My curse, for judgment.
|
|
|
|
6. The sword of the Lord is filled with blood,
|
|
It is made overflowing with fatness,
|
|
With the blood of lambs and goats,
|
|
With the fat of the kidneys of rams.
|
|
For the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
|
|
And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
|
|
|
|
7. The wild oxen shall come down with them,
|
|
And the young bulls with the mighty bulls;
|
|
Their land shall be soaked with blood,
|
|
And their dust saturated with fatness."
|
|
|
|
8. For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance,
|
|
The year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
|
|
|
|
9. Its streams shall be turned into pitch,
|
|
And its dust into brimstone;
|
|
Its land shall become burning pitch.
|
|
|
|
10. It shall not be quenched night or day;
|
|
Its smoke shall ascend forever.
|
|
From generation to generation it shall lie waste;
|
|
No one shall pass through it forever and ever.
|
|
|
|
11. But the pelican and the porcupine shall possess it,
|
|
Also the owl and the raven shall dwell in it.
|
|
And He shall stretch out over it
|
|
The line of confusion and the stones of emptiness.
|
|
|
|
12. They shall call its nobles to the kingdom,
|
|
But none shall be there, and all its princes shall be nothing.
|
|
|
|
13. And thorns shall come up in its palaces,
|
|
Nettles and brambles in its fortresses;
|
|
It shall be a habitation of jackals,
|
|
A courtyard for ostriches.
|
|
|
|
14. The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the jackals,
|
|
And the wild goat shall bleat to its companion;
|
|
Also the night creature shall rest there,
|
|
And find for herself a place of rest.
|
|
|
|
15. There the arrow snake shall make her nest and lay eggs
|
|
And hatch, and gather them under her shadow;
|
|
There also shall the hawks be gathered,
|
|
Every one with her mate.
|
|
|
|
16. "Search from the book of the Lord, and read:
|
|
Not one of these shall fail;
|
|
Not one shall lack her mate.
|
|
For My mouth has commanded it, and His Spirit has gathered them.
|
|
|
|
17. He has cast the lot for them,
|
|
And His hand has divided it among them with a measuring line.
|
|
They shall possess it forever;
|
|
From generation to generation they shall dwell in it."
