    and your garments like theirs who tread the winepress?”^(B)

³ “I have trodden the winepress alone,

⁵ When my sword has drunk its fill in the heavens,

    it is gorged with fat,
    with the blood of lambs and goats,
    with the fat of the kidneys of rams.

    a great slaughter in the land of Edom.^(B)
7 Wild oxen shall fall with them
    and young steers with the mighty bulls.
Their land shall be soaked with blood,
    and their soil made rich with fat.^(C)

⁸ For the Lord has a day of vengeance,
    a year of vindication for Zion’s cause.^[a](D)

    Has counsel perished from the prudent?
    Has their wisdom vanished?^(A)
