Isaiah 34:2-7

The Voice

²For the Eternal One is furious with all the nations. He has had it with their armies.
    He has marked them for destruction, and has given them over to slaughter.
³Their blood will run like rivers down the mountains,
    their corpses tossed out, heaped up, and randomly piled in a great stinking mound.
⁴All the stars in the once-vibrant heavens will vanish:
    and the sky will be rolled up like a scroll.
All the starry hosts will wither and fall,
    like grape leaves crisped by fall or fig leaves shriveled by winter.^[a]

⁵Eternal One: For once my sword has had its fill in the heavens;
I’ll set it against Edom, those people who despise My own.
I have marked Edom for judgment and destruction.

⁶The Eternal One indeed has a blood-gulping sword.
    It drinks up fat and blood from the innards
And flesh of lambs, goats, and rams—the sacrifice.
    And now the Eternal is coming to sacrifice the Edomites—
A great slaughter in their capital Bozrah,
⁷And great wild cattle will be slaughtered
    along with them—bulls, oxen, and steers—
Until their land is soggy with blood and oozes with their fat.
