    The ·stink [stench] will rise from the ·bodies [corpses],
    and the blood will flow down the mountains.
·The sun, moon, and stars [L All the hosts/armies of heaven] will dissolve [Joel 2:31; Matt. 24:29; Acts 2:20; Rev. 6:13–14],
    and the ·sky [heavens] will be rolled up like a scroll.
·The stars [L All their hosts] will fall
    like dead leaves from a vine
    or dried-up figs from a fig tree.
The Lord’s sword in the ·sky [heavens] ·is covered with [has drunk its fill of] blood.
    It will ·cut through [L descend upon] Edom
    and ·destroy those people as an offering to the Lord [on the people who are devoted to destruction for judgment; v. 2; Josh. 6:21].
