Isaiah 34:1-6

English Standard Version

Judgment on the Nations

34 Draw near, ^(A)O nations, to hear,
    and give attention, O peoples!
Let the earth hear, and all that fills it;
    the world, and all that comes from it.
²For the Lord is enraged against all the nations,
    and furious against all their host;
    he has ^(B)devoted them to destruction,^[a] has given them over for slaughter.
³Their slain shall be cast out,
    and ^(C)the stench of their corpses shall rise;
    ^(D)the mountains shall flow with their blood.
⁴^(E)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.

⁵For my sword has drunk its fill in the heavens;
    behold, it descends for judgment upon ^(F)Edom,
    upon the people ^(G)I have devoted to destruction.
⁶The 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.
^(H)For the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
    a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
