aCome near, ye nations, to hear;

And hearken, ye people:

bLet the earth hear, and †all that is therein;

The world, and all cthings that come forth of it.

2  For the indignation of the Lord is upon all nations,

And his fury upon all their armies:

He hath outterly destroyed them, he hath delivered them to the slaughter.

3  Their slain also shall be cast out,

And dtheir stink shall come up out of their carcases,

And the mountains shall be melted with their blood.

4  And efall the host of heaven shall be dissolved,

And gthe heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll:

And hall their host shall fall down,

As ithe leaf falleth off from the vine,

And fas a falling fig from the fig tree.

5  For kmy sword shall be lbathed in heaven:

Behold, mit shall come down upon nIdumea,

And upon the people of my ocurse, to judgment.

6  kThe sword of the Lord is filled with blood,

It is made fat with fatness,

And with the blood of lambs and goats,

With the fat of the kidneys of rams:

For pthe Lord hath a sacrifice in qBozrah,

And a great slaughter in the land of nIdumea.

7  And the ||runicorns shall come down with them,

And sthe bullocks with sthe bulls;

And their land shall be ||soaked with blood,

And their dust made fat with fatness.
