Isaiah 34

Revised Version 1895

1ComeH7126 nearH7126, ye nationsH1471, to hearH8085; and hearken, ye peoplesH3816: let the earthH776 hearH8085, and the fulness thereof; the worldH8398, and allH3605 things that comeH7126 forthH8085 of it 2For the LORDH3068 hath indignation againstH5921 allH3605 the nationsH1471, and furyH2534 againstH5921 allH3605 their hostH6635: he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath deliveredH5414 them to the slaughterH2874. 3Their slainH2491 also shall be castH7993 outH7993, and the stink of their carcases shall comeH5927 upH5927, and the mountainsH2022 shall be meltedH4549 with their bloodH1818. 4And allH3605 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 shall be dissolved, and the heavensH8064 shall be rolledH1556 together as a scrollH5612: and allH3605 their hostH6635 shall fade awayH4743, as the leafH5929 fadeth from off the vineH1612, and as a fading leafH5929 from the figH8384 treeH8384. 5For my swordH2719 hath drunkH7301 itsH5921 fillH7301 in heavenH8064: beholdH2009, it shall comeH3381 downH3381 uponH5921 EdomH123, and uponH5921 the peopleH5971 of my curse, to judgmentH4941. 6The swordH2719 of the LORDH3068 is filledH4390 with bloodH1818, it is madeH1878 fatH2459 with fatnessH2459, with the bloodH1818 of lambsH3733 and goatsH6260, with the fatH2459 of the kidneysH3629 of ramsH352: for the LORDH3068 hath a sacrificeH2077 in BozrahH1224, and a greatH1419 slaughterH2874 in the landH776 of EdomH123. 7And the wild-oxen shall comeH3381 downH3381 with them, and the bullocks with the bullsH6499; and their landH776 shall be drunken with bloodH1818, and their dustH6083 madeH1878 fatH2459 with fatnessH2459. 8For it is the dayH3117 of the LORD’SH3068 vengeanceH5359, the yearH8141 of recompence in the controversyH7379 of ZionH6726. 9And the streamsH5158 thereof shall be turnedH2015 intoH2015 pitchH2203, and the dustH6083 thereof intoH2015 brimstoneH1614, and the landH776 thereof shall becomeH1961 burningH1197 pitchH2203. 10It shall notH3808 be quenchedH3518 nightH3915 norH3808 dayH3119; the smokeH6227 thereof shall goH5927 upH5927 for everH5769: from generationH1755 to generationH1755 it shall lieH5927 waste; noneH369 shall passH5674 throughH5674 it for everH5769 and everH5769. 11But the pelicanH6893 and the porcupine shall possessH3423 it; and the owlH3244 and the ravenH6158 shall dwellH7931 therein: and he shall stretchH5186 over it the lineH68 of confusionH8414, and the plummet of emptinessH922. 12They shall callH7121 the noblesH2715 thereof to the kingdomH4410, but noneH369 shall be there; and allH3605 herH3605 princesH8269 shall be nothingH369. 13And thornsH2336 shall comeH1961 upH5927 in herH1961 palacesH759, nettlesH7057 and thistlesH7057 in the fortressesH759 thereof: and it shall be an habitation of jackalsH8577, a court for ostrichesH3284. 14And the wild beasts of the desert shall meetH6298 with the wolvesH338, and the satyr shall cryH7121 to his fellowH7453; yea, the night-monster shall settle there, and shall findH4672 herH5921 a placeH4494 of restH4494. 15There shall the arrowsnake makeH1234 herH802 nestH7077, and layH4422, and hatchH1234, and gatherH6908 under herH802 shadowH6738: yea, there shall the kites be gatheredH6908, everyH802 one with herH802 mateH7468. 16SeekH1875 ye outH5921 of the bookH5612 of the LORDH3068, and readH7121: noH3808 one of theseH2007 shall be missingH6485, noneH3808 shall want herH5921 mateH7468: for my mouthH6310 it hath commandedH6680, and his spiritH7307 it hath gatheredH6908 them. 17And he hath castH5307 the lotH1486 for them, and his handH3027 hath dividedH2505 it unto them by line: they shall possessH3423 it for everH5769, from generationH1755 to generationH1755 shall they dwellH7931 therein.
