5 For my sword was drunk in the heavens: behold, it shall come down upon Edom, and upon the people of destruction for judgment.

6 The sword of Jehovah was filled with blood, it was made fat from the fat of the blood of lambs and he goats, from the fat of kidneys of rams: for a sacrifice to Jehovah in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

7 And the buffaloes shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the strong ones; and their land was drunk from blood, and from fat shall their dust be made fat.

8 For a day of vengeance to Jehovah, a year of retributions for the contention of Zion.

9 And its torrents turned to pitch, and its dust to sulphur, and its land to burning pitch.

10 Night and day it shall not be quenched; its smoke shall go up forever: from generation to generation it shall be laid waste; none passing through it forever to forever.
