The sword of Adonai is filled with blood, gorged with fat—
    the blood of lambs and goats,
    the fat of kidneys of rams.
For Adonai has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
Wild oxen will go down with them,
    bull calves with mighty steers.
So their land will be soaked with blood
    and their dust greasy with fat.
For Adonai has a day of vengeance,
a year of recompense for the hostility against Zion.
