The Book of the Prophet Isaiah

Literal Standard Version 2020

- Kapitel 34 -

1
Come near, you nations, to hear, || And you peoples, give attention, || The earth and its fullness hear, || The world, and all its productions.
2
For to YHWH [is] wrath against all the nations, || And fury against all their host, || He has devoted them to destruction, || He has given them to slaughter.
3
And their wounded are cast out, || And their carcasses cause their stench to ascend, || And mountains have been melted from their blood.
4
And all the host of the heavens have been consumed, || And the heavens have been rolled together as a scroll, || And all their hosts fade, || As the fading of a leaf of a vine, || And as the fading one of a fig tree.

Judgment on Edom

(Isaiah 21:11–12)
5
For My sword was soaked in the heavens, || Behold, it comes down on Edom, || On the people of My curse for judgment.
6
A sword [is] to YHWHit has been full of blood, || It has been made fat with fatness, || With blood of lambs and male goats. With fat of kidneys of rams, || For to YHWH [is] a sacrifice in Bozrah, || And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7
And reems have come down with them, || And bullocks with bulls, || And their land has been soaked from blood, || And their dust is made fat from fatness.
8
(For a day of vengeance [is] to YHWH, || A year of recompenses for Zion’s strife),
9
And her streams have been turned to pitch, || And her dust to brimstone, || And her land has become burning pitch.
10
She is not quenched by night and by day, || Her smoke goes up for all time, || She is desolate from generation to generation, || Forever and ever, none is passing into her.
11
And pelican and hedgehog possess her, || And owl and raven dwell in her, || And He has stretched out over her || A line of vacancy, and stones of emptiness.
12
They call her nobles [to] the kingdom, || But there are none there, || And all her princes are at an end.
13
And thorns have gone up her palaces, || Nettle and bramble [are] in her fortresses, || And it has been a habitation of dragons, || A court for daughters of an ostrich.
14
And desert-dwellers have met with howlers, || And the goat calls for its companion, || Surely the night-owl has rested there, || And has found a place of rest for herself.
15
The owl has made her nest there, || Indeed, she lays, and has hatched, || And has gathered under her shadow, || Surely vultures have been gathered there, || Each with its companion.
16
Seek out of the scroll of YHWH, and read, || One of these has not been lacking, || None has missed its companion, || For My mouthit has commanded, || And His SpiritHe has gathered them.
17
And He has cast a lot for them, || And His hand has apportioned [it] to them by line, || They possess it for all time, || They dwell in it from generation to generation!
