Isaiah 34:9-11

Christian Standard Bible

⁹ Edom’s streams will be turned into pitch,
her soil into sulfur;^(A)
her land will become burning pitch.
¹⁰ It will never go out—day or night.
Its smoke will go up forever.^(B)
It will be desolate, from generation to generation;
no one will pass through it forever and ever.^(C)
11 Eagle owls^[a] and herons^[b] will possess it,
and long-eared owls and ravens will dwell there.^(D)
The Lord will stretch out a measuring line
and a plumb line^(E) over her
for her destruction and chaos.^(F)
