Isaiah 34:2-8
2For the Lord’s 1indignation is against all the nations, And His wrath against all their armies; He has 23utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to 4slaughter.3So their slain will be 5thrown out, And their corpses 6will give off their 7stench, And the mountains will 8be drenched with their 9blood.4And 10all the host of heaven will 11wear away, And the 12sky 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.5For 13My sword is satiated in heaven, Behold it shall descend for judgment upon 14Edom And upon the people whom I have 15devoted to destruction.6The sword of the Lord is filled with blood, It is 16sated with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the Lord has a sacrifice in 17Bozrah And a great slaughter in the land of 18Edom.719Wild oxen will also 20fall with them And 21young bulls with strong ones; Thus their land will be 22soaked with blood, And their dust 23become greasy with fat.8For the Lord has a day of 24vengeance, A year of recompense for the 25cause of Zion.
