1 Come neere, ye nations and heare, and hearken, ye people: let the earth heare and all that is therein, the world and al that proceedeth thereof.

Draw near O nations to hear and O peoples pay attention let it hear the earth and what fills it [the] world and all produce its.

2 For the indignation of the Lord is vpon all nations, and his wrath vpon all their armies: hee hath destroyed them and deliuered them to the slaughter.

For wrath [belongs] to Yahweh towards all the nations and rage towards every army their he will totally destroy them he will deliver up them to slaughter.

3 And their slaine shalbe cast out, and their stincke shall come vp out of their bodies, and the mountaines shalbe melted with their blood.

And slain [ones] their they will be thrown out and corpses their it will go up stench their and they will melt away mountains from blood their.

4 And all the hoste of heauen shalbe dissolued, and the heauens shall be folden like a booke: and all their hostes shall fall as the leafe falleth from the vine, and as it falleth from the figtree.

And they will rot away all [the] host of the heavens and they will be rolled up like scroll the heavens and all host their it will wither as withers leafage from a vine and like withered fruit from a fig tree.

5 For my sword shalbe drunken in the heauen: beholde, it shall come downe vpon Edom, euen vpon the people of my curse to iudgement.

If it has drunk its fill in the heavens sword my there! on Edom it will come down and on [the] people of total destruction my for judgment.

6 The sword of the Lord is filled with blood: it is made fat with the fat and with the blood of the lambes and the goates, with the fat of the kidneis of the rams: for the Lord hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

A sword [belongs] to Yahweh it is full blood it has fattened itself from fat from [the] blood of lambs and goats from [the] fat of [the] kidneys of rams for a sacrifice [belongs] to Yahweh in Bozrah and a slaughter great in [the] land of Edom.

7 And the vnicorne shall come downe with them and the heiffers with the bulles, and their lande shalbe drunken with blood, and their dust made fat with fatnesse.

And they will go down wild oxen with them and young bulls with mighty [bulls] and it will drink its fill land their from blood and dust their from fat it will be fattened.

8 For it is the day of the Lordes vengeance, and the yeere of recompence for the iudgement of Zion.

For a day of vengeance [belongs] to Yahweh a year of retribution for [the] cause of Zion.

9 And the riuers thereof shall be turned into pitche, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shalbe burning pitch.

And they will be changed torrents its into pitch and dust its into sulfur and it will become land its pitch burning.

10 It shall not be quenched night nor day: the smoke thereof shall goe vp euermore: it shall be desolate from generation to generation: none shall passe through it for euer.

Night and by day not it will be extinguished for ever it will go up smoke its from generation to generation it will be desolate to perpetuity of perpetuities there not [will be one who] passes in it.

11 But the pelicane and the hedgehog shall possesse it, and the great owle, and the rauen shall dwel in it, and he shall stretch out vpon it the line of vanitie, and the stones of emptinesse.

And they will take possession of it desert owl and hedgehog and great owl and raven they will dwell in it and he will stretch out over it a measuring-line of formlessness and stones of emptiness.

12 The nobles thereof shall call to the kingdome, and there shalbe none, and all the princes thereof shalbe as nothing.

Nobles its and there not there [will be that which] a kingship people will call and all princes its they will be nothing.

13 And it shall bring foorth thornes in the palaces thereof, nettles and thistles in the strong holdes thereof, and it shall be an habitation for dragons, and a court for ostriches.

And it will grow up fortresses its thorns nettle[s] and thornbush[es] [will be] on fortifications its and it will be a habitation of jackals grass for daughters of an ostrich.

14 There shall meete also Ziim and Iim, and the Satyre shall cry to his fellow, and the shricheowle shall rest there, and shall finde for her selfe a quiet dwelling.

And they will meet desert-dwellers hyenas and goat to companion its it will call surely there it will rest [the] night-creature and it will find for itself a resting place.

15 There shall the owle make her nest, and laye, and hatche, and gather them vnder her shadowe: there shall the vultures also bee gathered, euery one with her make.

There it will make a nest owl[s] and it laid eggs and it will hatch and it will gather a brood in shadow its surely there they will be gathered black kites each companion its.

16 Seeke in the booke of the Lord, and reade: none of these shall fayle, none shall want her make: for his mouth hath commanded, and his very Spirit hath gathered them.

Seek from on [the] scroll of Yahweh and read one of them not it will be missing each companion its not they will miss for mouth my it it has commanded and spirit his it it will gather them.

17 And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath deuided it vnto them by line: they shall possesse it for euer: from generation to generation shall they dwell in it.

And he he has cast for them a lot and hand his it has distributed it to them by the measuring-line until perpetuity they will possess it to a generation and a generation they will dwell in it.
