6 The Lord has a sword sated with blood,greasy with fat,With the blood of lambs and goats,with the fat of rams’ kidneys;For the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 Wild oxen shall be struck down with fatlings,and bullocks with bulls;Their land shall be soaked with blood,and their soil greasy with fat.
8 For the Lord has a day of vengeance,a year of requital for the cause of Zion.
9 Edom’s streams shall be changed into pitch,its soil into sulfur,and its land shall become burning pitch;
10 Night and day it shall not be quenched,its smoke shall rise forever.From generation to generation it shall lie waste,never again shall anyone pass through it.
11 But the desert owl and hoot owl shall possess it,the screech owl and raven shall dwell in it.The Lord will stretch over it the measuring line of chaos,the plumb line of confusion.
12 Its nobles shall be no more,nor shall kings be proclaimed there;all its princes are gone.
