Isaiah 34

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

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

10 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
