Yahweh’s Wrath Against the Nations

34 Draw near, (A)O nations, to hear; and pay attention, O peoples!
(B)Let the earth hear, as well as its fullness, the world and all that springs from it.
For the (C)indignation of Yahweh is against all the nations,
And His wrath against all their [a]hosts;
He has [b](D)devoted them to destruction;
He has given them over to (E)slaughter.
So their slain will be (F)cast out,
And their corpses [c]will give off their (G)stench,
And the mountains will [d]be drenched with their (H)blood.
And (I)all the host of heaven will rot away,
And the (J)sky will be rolled up like a scroll;
All their hosts will also wither away
As a leaf withers from the vine,
Or as one withers from the fig tree.

Judgment on the Nations

34 Come (A)near, you nations, to hear;
And heed, you people!
(B)Let the earth hear, and all that is in it,
The world and all things that come forth from it.
For the indignation of the Lord is against all nations,
And His fury against all their armies;
He has utterly destroyed them,
He has given them over to the (C)slaughter.
Also their slain shall be thrown out;
(D)Their stench shall rise from their corpses,
And the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
(E)All the host of heaven shall be dissolved,
And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll;
(F)All their host shall fall down
As the leaf falls from the vine,
And as (G)fruit falling from a fig tree.
