7 And the wild oxen will fall with them,

the bull calves and the great bulls.

Their land will be drenched with blood,

and the dust will be soaked with fat.

8 For the Lord has a day of vengeance,

a year of retribution, to uphold Zion’s cause.

7 And the unicorns shall come down with them, And the bullocks with the bulls; And their land shall be soaked with blood, And their dust made fat with fatness. 8 For it is the day of the Lord’s vengeance, And the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.

7 Even men as strong as wild oxen will die—

the young men alongside the veterans.

The land will be soaked with blood

and the soil enriched with fat.

8 For it is the day of the Lord’s revenge,

the year when Edom will be paid back for all it did to Israel.

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.

7 The oxen will be killed,

and the cattle and the strong bulls.

The land will be filled with their blood,

and the dirt will be covered with their fat.

8 The Lord has chosen a time for punishment.

He has chosen a year when people must pay for the wrongs they did to Jerusalem.

7 And the wild-oxen shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls: and their land shall be drunken with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness.

8 For Jehovah hath a day of vengeance, a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.

7 And the buffaloes shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness. 8 For it is the day of Jehovah’s vengeance, the year of recompenses for the controversy of Zion.

7 Wild oxen will be killed with them, 

young bulls along with rams. 

Their land will be drenched with blood. 

Their dust will be covered with fat. 

8 The Lord will have a day of vengeance, 

a year of revenge in defense of Zion. 

7 The wild oxen will be struck down with them,

and young bulls with the mighty bulls.

Their land will be soaked with blood,

and their soil will be saturated with fat.

8 For the Lord has a day of vengeance,

a time of paying back Edom

for its hostility against Zion.

7 Wild oxen shall fall with them,

and young steers with the mighty bulls.

Their land shall be soaked with blood,

and their soil made rich with fat.

8 For the Lord has a day of vengeance,

a year of vindication by Zion’s cause.

7 And wild oxen shall go down with them,

and steers with strong bulls.

And their land shall be drenched with blood,

and their soil shall be fattened with fat.

8 For Yahweh has a day of vengeance,

a year of retribution for the strife of Zion.

7 The people and their leaders will be killed

like wild oxen and young bulls.

Their land will be wet with their blood.

The dust will be covered with their fat.

8 That’s because the Lord has set aside a day to pay Edom back.

He has set aside a year to pay them back for what they did to the city of Zion.

7 Wild oxen will also fall with them

And young bulls with strong ones;

Thus their land will be soaked with blood,

And their dust become greasy with fat.

8 For the Lord has a day of vengeance,

A year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
