Isaiah 34:2-7
English Standard Version
Isaiah 34:2-7
English Standard Version
2 For the Lord is enraged against all the nations,
and furious against all their host;
he has (A)devoted them to destruction,[a] has given them over for slaughter.
3 Their slain shall be cast out,
and (B)the stench of their corpses shall rise;
(C)the mountains shall flow with their blood.
4 (D)All the host of heaven shall rot away,
and the skies roll up like a scroll.
All their host shall fall,
as leaves fall from the vine,
like leaves falling from the fig tree.
5 For my sword has drunk its fill in the heavens;
behold, it descends for judgment upon (E)Edom,
upon the people (F)I have devoted to destruction.
6 The Lord has a sword; it is sated with blood;
it is gorged with fat,
with the blood of lambs and goats,
with the fat of the kidneys of rams.
(G)For the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 (H)Wild oxen shall (I)fall with them,
and (J)young steers with (K)the mighty bulls.
Their land shall drink its fill of blood,
and their soil shall be gorged with fat.

New International Version
2 The Lord is angry with all nations;
his wrath(A) is on all their armies.
He will totally destroy[a](B) them,
he will give them over to slaughter.(C)
3 Their slain(D) will be thrown out,
their dead bodies(E) will stink;(F)
the mountains will be soaked with their blood.(G)
4 All the stars in the sky will be dissolved(H)
and the heavens rolled up(I) like a scroll;
all the starry host will fall(J)
like withered(K) leaves from the vine,
like shriveled figs from the fig tree.
5 My sword(L) has drunk its fill in the heavens;
see, it descends in judgment on Edom,(M)
the people I have totally destroyed.(N)
6 The sword(O) of the Lord is bathed in blood,
it is covered with fat—
the blood of lambs and goats,
fat from the kidneys of rams.
For the Lord has a sacrifice(P) in Bozrah(Q)
and a great slaughter(R) in the land of Edom.
7 And the wild oxen(S) will fall with them,
the bull calves and the great bulls.(T)
Their land will be drenched with blood,(U)
and the dust will be soaked with fat.
