Isaiah 34:1-4
Holman Christian Standard Bible
The Judgment of the Nations
34 You nations, come here and listen;
you peoples, pay attention!(A)
Let the earth hear, and all that fills it,
the world and all that comes from it.(B)
2 The Lord is angry with all the nations—
furious with all their armies.(C)
He will set them apart for destruction,(D)
giving them over to slaughter.
3 Their slain will be thrown out,
and the stench of their corpses will rise;(E)
the mountains will flow[a] with their blood.(F)
4 All[b] the heavenly bodies(G) will dissolve.
The skies will roll up like a scroll,(H)
and their stars will all wither
as leaves wither on the vine,
and foliage on the fig tree.(I)

A Message for the Nations
34 Come here and listen, O nations of the earth.
Let the world and everything in it hear my words.
2 For the Lord is enraged against the nations.
His fury is against all their armies.
He will completely destroy[a] them,
dooming them to slaughter.
3 Their dead will be left unburied,
and the stench of rotting bodies will fill the land.
The mountains will flow with their blood.
4 The heavens above will melt away
and disappear like a rolled-up scroll.
The stars will fall from the sky
like withered leaves from a grapevine,
or shriveled figs from a fig tree.
