Isaiah 34:6-8

New King James Version

⁶The ^(A)sword of the Lord is filled with blood,
It is made ^[a]overflowing with fatness,
With the blood of lambs and goats,
With the fat of the kidneys of rams.
For ^(B)the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
⁷The wild oxen shall come down with them,
And the young bulls with the mighty bulls;
Their land shall be soaked with blood,
And their dust ^[b]saturated with fatness.”

⁸For it is the day of the Lord’s ^(C)vengeance,
The year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
