the world ,
and all things
that come
forth
from it.

indignation
against
all the nations ,

against
all their host:
he hath
utterly
destroyed
them ,
he hath
delivered
them to the
slaughter.
The
LORD
is
angry
with
all the nations and furious
with
all their armies.
He will
devote
them to
destruction;
He will
give
them over
to slaughter.

out
, and the stench of their dead
bodies
shall
come
up

the mountains shall
be
melted
with their blood.

`leaf'
from the fig -
tree.
All the stars
of heaven will

upon the people of
my
curse,
to judgment
.
When
My sword has

heavens
, then
it will
come down upon Edom, upon the people I

for Jehovah
hath
a sacrifice in Bozrah, and
a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

fall
with them, the young
bulls
with the strong
ones.

soaked
with fat
.

day ;
the
smoke thereof
shall

lie waste
; none
shall
pass through it for
ever
and
ever
.
It will
not be quenched —
day or
night.
Its
smoke will
ascend
forever.
From generation to generation it will
lie desolate
; no
one
will
ever
again
pass through it.
But
the pelican
and the
porcupine
shall
possess it ;
and the owl and the
raven shall
dwell therein:
and
he
will stretch over it
the
line of confusion,
and the
plummet
of emptiness
.
The desert
owl
and screech
owl
will
possess it ,
and the great
owl and raven will
dwell in
it.
The
LORD
will stretch out
over Edom
a
measuring

shall
call
the
nobles thereof
to the
kingdom
, but
none
shall
be

princes will
come
to
nothing.

thorns shall
come
up
in
its
palaces
, nettles
and
thistles
in
the
fortresses thereof;
and it
shall
be
a habitation
of
jackals, a
court
for ostriches.
Her
towers
will
be
overgrown
with
thorns, her
fortresses with
thistles
and briers.

jackals, an
abode
for ostriches.
And
the wild
beasts
of
the
desert shall
meet with the
wolves
, and the
wild goat shall
cry
to his
fellow;
yea,
the night -monster
shall
settle there,
and shall
find her a
place of rest
.
The desert creatures
will
meet with hyenas
, and one
wild goat will
call
to another.
There
the night creature
will
settle and find her place of repose

There shall
the dart-snake
make her nest ,
and
lay ,
and hatch ,
and gather under her shade;
yea,
there shall
the kites
be
gathered
, every
one
with her
mate.
There the owl
will
make her nest ;
she
will
lay and hatch her
eggs
and gather her
brood
under her shadow.
Even
there the birds
of
prey
will
gather
, each
with its
mate.
Seek
ye
out
of
the
book
of
Jehovah,
and read: no
one of these shall
be
missing, none
shall
want
her mate ;
for
my
mouth
, it hath
commanded
, and his Spirit ,
it
hath
gathered
them
.
Search
and read the
scroll
of
the
LORD
: Not
one of these will
go
missing, not
one
will
lack
her mate, because
He
has
ordered
it by
His
mouth
, and He
will
gather
them
by
His Spirit.
And
he hath
cast
the
lot
for
them,
and
his hand hath
divided
it unto
them
by line:
they shall
possess it for
ever
; from generation to generation shall
they
dwell
therein
.
He has
allotted
their
portion;
His hand has
distributed
it by measure.
They will
possess it forever
; they
will
dwell
in
it
from generation to generation.
