Come near, ye nations, to hear, And ye peoples, give attention, Hear doth the earth and its fulness , The world , and all its productions .
Come near, O nations, to listen; pay attention, O peoples. Let the earth hear, and all that fills it , the world and all that springs from it .
For wrath ` is ' to Jehovah against all the nations , And fury against all their host, He hath devoted them to destruction , He hath given them to slaughter.

The sword of the LORD is bathed in blood . It drips with fat— with the blood of lambs and goats , with the fat of the kidneys of rams . For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
And come down have reems with them, And bullocks with bulls , And soaked hath been their land from blood, And their dust from fatness is made fat.

By night and by day she is not quenched , To the age go up doth her smoke , From generation to generation she is waste, For ever and ever , none is passing into her .
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 .
And possess her do pelican and hedge-hog , And owl and raven dwell in her, And He hath stretched out over her A line of vacancy, and stones 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 line of chaos and a plumb line of destruction .
` To ' the kingdom her freemen they call, But there are none there , And all her princes are at an end .
