34:2 For the Lord is angry at all the nations
and furious with all their armies.
He will annihilate them and slaughter them.
34:3 Their slain will be left unburied, 1
their corpses will stink; 2
the hills will soak up their blood. 3
34:4 All the stars in the sky will fade away, 4
the sky will roll up like a scroll;
all its stars will wither,
like a leaf withers and falls from a vine
or a fig withers and falls from a tree. 5
34:5 He says, 6 “Indeed, my sword has slaughtered heavenly powers. 7
Look, it now descends on Edom, 8
on the people I will annihilate in judgment.”
34:6 The Lord’s sword is dripping with blood,
it is covered 9 with fat;
it drips 10 with the blood of young rams and goats
and is covered 11 with the fat of rams’ kidneys.
For the Lord is holding a sacrifice 12 in Bozrah, 13
a bloody 14 slaughter in the land of Edom.
34:7 Wild oxen will be slaughtered 15 along with them,
as well as strong bulls. 16
Their land is drenched with blood,
their soil is covered with fat.
