Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
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, ye nations, to hear ;
and hearken
, ye
people:
let
the earth hear
, and
all
that
is
therein;
the world, and all things
that
come
forth
of
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.
For the
indignation
of
the
LORD
is upon
all nations, and his
fury upon
all their armies:
he hath utterly
destroyed
them, he hath delivered
them to the
slaughter.
And
their wounded
are
cast out, And their carcases
cause
their stench
to
ascend
, And melted
have
been
mountains from
their blood.
Their slain
also
shall
be
cast out, and their stink
shall
come
up
out
of
their carcases
, and the
mountains shall
be
melted
with
their blood.
And consumed
have
been
all the host of the
heavens
, And rolled together as a book
have
been
the
heavens,
And all their hosts
do
fade
, As the fading
of
a
leaf of
a
vine, And as the
fading
one
of
a fig -
tree.
And all the host of heaven
shall
be
dissolved
, and the
heavens
shall
be
rolled together as a scroll:
and all their host
shall
fall
down
, as the leaf falleth
off
from
the
vine, and as a falling
fig from
the
fig
tree.
For soaked
in
the
heavens
was
My sword ,
Lo
, on
Edom
it cometh
down, On
the people of My curse for
judgment.
For my sword shall
be
bathed
in
heaven:
behold
, it shall
come
down upon
Idumea
, and
upon
the people of my curse ,
to
judgment.
A
sword `is'
to
Jehovah
--
it
hath
been
full
of blood, It hath
been
made fat with fatness, With blood of lambs and he-
goats .
With fat of kidneys of rams ,
For a sacrifice `is'
to
Jehovah
in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom
.
The
sword of the
LORD
is
filled
with
blood, it is
made fat with fatness, and
with the
blood of lambs and goats ,
with the
fat of the
kidneys of rams :
for the
LORD
hath
a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea
.
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.
And the
unicorns
shall
come down with them, and the
bullocks with the
bulls ;
and their land shall
be
soaked
with
blood, and their dust made fat with
fatness
.
(
For a
day of vengeance `is'
to
Jehovah
, A
year of recompences for Zion's
strife,)
For it
is
the
day of the
LORD's
vengeance, and
the
year of recompences for the
controversy
of
Zion.
And turned
have
been
her
streams to
pitch, And her
dust to
brimstone, And her
land hath
become burning pitch.
And the
streams thereof
shall
be
turned
into
pitch, and the
dust thereof
into
brimstone, and the
land thereof
shall
become burning pitch.
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
shall
not be
quenched night
nor
day;
the smoke
thereof
shall
go up for
ever:
from generation to generation it
shall
lie
waste ;
none
shall
pass
through
it
for ever and ever.
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.
But
the
cormorant
and the
bittern
shall
possess it;
the
owl also
and the
raven shall
dwell in it:
and he shall
stretch
out upon
it
the
line of confusion
, and the
stones of emptiness.
`
To '
the kingdom her
freemen
they
call
, But there
are
none there, And all her princes are
at
an
end
.
They
shall
call
the
nobles
thereof
to the kingdom, but none shall
be
there, and all her princes shall
be
nothing
.
And gone
up her palaces have
thorns
, Nettle
and bramble
`are'
in her
fortresses ,
And it hath
been
a
habitation of dragons, A court for daughters
of
an
ostrich
.
And thorns
shall
come
up in
her palaces, nettles
and brambles
in the
fortresses thereof:
and it shall
be
an
habitation of dragons, and
a court for owls
.
And
met
have
Ziim
with Aiim
, And the goat
for
its
companion
calleth,
Only
there
rested
hath
the night-
owl, And hath
found
for herself a place of rest.
The
wild
beasts
of
the
desert
shall
also
meet
with the
wild
beasts
of
the
island
, and the satyr
shall
cry
to
his
fellow;
the screech
owl also
shall
rest
there
, and find
for herself a place of rest.
There made
her nest hath
the
bittern
, Yea,
she
layeth
, and hath
hatched
, And hath
gathered
under her shadow ,
Only
there gathered
have
been
vultures, Each
with its
companion
.
There shall
the
great
owl
make
her nest, and
lay
, and hatch
, and gather
under her shadow :
there shall
the
vultures also
be
gathered
, every
one
with her
mate
.
Seek out of the book of Jehovah
, and read ,
One of these hath
not
been
lacking
, None hath
missed
its
companion,
For My mouth --
it hath commanded, And His spirit --
He
hath gathered them.
Seek ye
out of the book of the
LORD
, and read :
no
one of these shall
fail
, none shall
want
her
mate:
for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it
hath gathered them.
And He hath cast for them a
lot
, And His hand hath apportioned
`
it '
to
them by line ,
Unto
the
age
they possess it, To all
generations
they dwell in
it!
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.
