2For the Lord’s aindignation is against all the nations,

And His wrath against all their armies;

He has 1butterly destroyed them,

He has given them over to cslaughter.

3So their slain will be athrown out,

And their corpses 1will give off their bstench,

And the mountains will 2be drenched with their cblood.

4And aall the host of heaven will 1wear away,

And the bsky 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 aMy sword is satiated in heaven,

Behold it shall descend for judgment upon bEdom

And upon the people whom I have cdevoted to destruction.

6The sword of the Lord is filled with blood,

It is 1sated with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats,

With the fat of the kidneys of rams.

For the Lord has a sacrifice in aBozrah

And a great slaughter in the land of bEdom.

7aWild oxen will also 1fall with them

And byoung bulls with strong ones;

Thus their land will be csoaked with blood,

And their dust 2become greasy with fat.

8For the Lord has a day of avengeance,

A year of recompense for the 1cause of Zion.
