6 The Lord has a sword covered with blood;it is soaked with fatfrom the blood of lambs and goats,from the kidney fat of rams,for the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 Wild oxen will fall with them,steers with mighty bulls,and their land will be drenched with blood;its soil soaked with fat.
8 The Lord has a day of vengeance,a year of payback for Zion’s cause.
9 Edom’s streams will be turned into pitch,its dust into sulfur,and its land will become burning pitch.
10 Night and day won’t be extinguished;its smoke will go up forever.From generation to generation it will lie waste;no one will ever pass through it again.
11 Screech owls and crows will possess it;owls and ravens will live there.God will stretch over it the measuring line of chaosand the plummet stone of emptiness over its officials.
12 No Kingdom There, they will call it,and all its princes will disappear.
