ULT ISA Chapter 34

◄ ISA 34 ► ║ ©

34 Come near, nations, to listen,

and the peoples, pay attention!

The earth and its multitude must listen,

the world and all its offspring.

2 For Yahweh has fury against all the nations

and wrath against all their armies.

He will completely destroy them;

he will hand them over to the slaughter.

3 And their slain will be thrown out,

and their corpses will emit a stench,

and the mountains will soak up their blood.

4 And all the host of the heavens will melt,

and the sky will be rolled up like a scroll;

and all their hosts will fade away,

as the leaf fades from the vine,

and as the withered fruit from the fig tree.

5 For my sword will have drunk its fill in heaven;

behold, on Edom it descends

and on the people set apart for judgment.

6 The sword of Yahweh is full of blood

dripping from fat,

from the blood of lambs and goats,

from the fat of the kidneys of rams.

For Yahweh has a sacrifice in Bozrah

and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

7 And wild oxen will fall with them,

and young bulls with strong ones.

And their land will drink its fill of blood,

and their dust fattened by fat.

8 For Yahweh has a day of vengeance,

a year of retribution for the cause of Zion.

9 And her streams will be turned into pitch,

and her dust into sulfur,

and her land will become burning pitch.

10 Night and day it will not be extinguished;

its smoke will rise forever.

From generation to generation it will be a wasteland;

forever and ever no one will pass through it.

11 But the pelican and the hedgehog will occupy it.

and the owl and the raven will dwell in it.

And he will stretch over it

the measuring line of formlessness

and the plumbline of void.

12 For her nobles, there is nothing to call a kingdom,

and all her princes will be nobody.

13 And thorns will rise over her palaces,

nettles and thistles in her fortresses.

And it will be a habitation of jackals,

a place for ostriches.

14 And the wild animals will meet hyenas,

and the wild goats will call upon his companion.

Indeed, there night creatures will settle

and find for themselves a place of rest.

15 There the owl will nest and lay

and hatch and brood in her shade.

Indeed, there hawks will gather,

each with its mate.

16 Search through the scroll of Yahweh and read:

not one of these will be missing;

not one will lack its mate.

For his mouth has commanded it,

and his spirit has gathered it.

17 And he has cast lots for them,

and his hand measured for them by a cord.

To eternity they will possess it;

from generation to generation they will live in it.
