1 Come close, you nations, and listen.Pay attention, you people.The earth, everyone in it,the world, and everything on it will listen.
2 The Lord is angry with all the nations.He is furious with all their armies.He has claimed them for destruction.He has handed them over to be slaughtered.
3 Their dead bodies will be thrown out.A stench will rise from their corpses.Mountains will be red with their blood.
4 All the stars in the sky will rot.The heavens will be rolled up like a scroll.The stars will falllike leaves from a grapevine,like green figs from a fig tree.
5 When my sword is covered ⌊with blood⌋ in the heavens,it will fall on Edomand on the people I’ve claimed for destruction.
6 The Lord’s sword is covered with blood.It is covered with fat,with the blood of lambs and goats,with the fat of rams’ kidneys.The Lord will receive a sacrifice in Bozrah,a huge slaughter in the land of Edom.
