ASV_Strong : Isaiah 34
1. Come near[H7126], ye nations[H1471], to hear[H8085]; and hearken[H7181], ye peoples[H3816]: let the earth[H776] hear[H8085], and the fulness thereof[H4393]; the world[H8398], and all things that come forth from it[H6631].
2. For Jehovah[H3068] hath indignation[H7110] against all the nations[H1471], and wrath[H2534] against all their host[H6635]: he hath utterly destroyed[H2763] them[H5414], he hath delivered them to the slaughter[H2874].
3. Their slain[H2491] also shall be cast out[H7993], and the stench[H889] of their dead bodies[H6297] shall come up[H5927]; and the mountains[H2022] shall be melted[H4549] with their blood[H1818].
4. And all the host[H6635] of heaven[H8064] shall be dissolved[H4743], and the heavens[H8064] shall be rolled together[H1556] as a scroll[H5612]; and all their host[H6635] shall fade away[H5034], as the leaf[H5929] fadeth from off[H5034] the vine[H1612], and as a fading[H5034] leaf from the fig-tree[H8384].
5. For my sword[H2719] hath drunk[H7301] its fill in heaven[H8064]: behold[H3381], it shall come down upon Edom[H123], and upon the people[H5971] of my curse[H2764], to judgment[H4941].
6. The sword[H2719] of Jehovah[H3068] is filled[H4390] with blood[H1818], it is made fat[H1878] with fatness[H2459], with the blood[H1818] of lambs[H3733] and goats[H6260], with the fat[H2459] of the kidneys[H3629] of rams[H352]; for Jehovah[H3068] hath a sacrifice[H2077] in Bozrah[H1224], and a great[H1419] slaughter[H2874] in the land[H776] of Edom[H123].
7. And the wild-oxen[H7214] shall come down[H3381] with them[H6499], and the bullocks with the bulls[H47]: and their land[H776] shall be drunken[H7301] with blood[H1818], and their dust[H6083] made fat[H1878] with fatness[H2459].
8. For Jehovah[H3068] hath a day[H3117] of vengeance[H5359], a year[H8141] of recompense[H7966] for the cause[H7379] of Zion[H6726].
9. And the streams[H5158] of Edom shall be turned[H2015] into pitch[H2203], and the dust[H6083] thereof into brimstone[H1614], and the land[H776] thereof shall become burning[H1197] pitch[H2203].
10. It shall not be quenched[H3518] night[H3915] nor day[H3119]; the smoke[H6227] thereof shall go up[H5927] for ever[H5769]; from generation[H1755] to generation[H1755] it shall lie waste[H2717]; none shall pass through[H5674] it for ever[H5331] and ever[H5331].
11. But the pelican[H6893] and the porcupine[H7090] shall possess[H3423] it[H3244]; and the owl and the raven[H6158] shall dwell[H7931] therein[H5186]: and he will stretch over it the line[H6957] of confusion[H8414], and the plummet[H68] of emptiness[H922].
12. They shall call[H7121] the nobles[H2715] thereof to the kingdom[H4410], but none shall be there[H8269]; and all its princes shall be nothing[H657].
13. And thorns[H5518] shall come up[H5927] in its palaces[H759], nettles[H7057] and thistles[H2336] in the fortresses[H4013] thereof[H5116]; and it shall be a habitation of jackals[H8577], a court[H2681] for ostriches[H1323].
14. And the wild beasts of the desert[H6728] shall meet[H6298] with the wolves[H338], and the wild goat[H8163] shall cry[H7121] to his fellow[H7453]; yea[H3917], the night-monster shall settle[H7280] there[H4672], and shall find her a place of rest[H7280].
15. There shall the dart-snake[H7091] make her nest[H7077], and lay[H4422], and hatch[H1234], and gather[H1716] under her shade[H6738]; yea[H1772], there shall the kites be gathered[H6908], every one[H802] with her mate[H7468].
16. Seek ye out[H1875] of the book[H5612] of Jehovah[H3068], and read[H7121]: no one[H259] of these[H2007] shall be missing[H5737], none[H802] shall want[H6485] her mate[H7468]; for my mouth[H6310], it hath commanded[H6680], and his Spirit[H7307], it hath gathered them[H6908].
17. And he hath cast[H5307] the lot[H1486] for them[H3027], and his hand hath divided[H2505] it unto them by line[H6957]: they shall possess[H3423] it for[H5704] ever[H5769]; from generation[H1755] to generation[H1755] shall they dwell therein[H7931].
