The people and their leaders will be killed
    like wild oxen and young bulls.
Their land will be wet with their blood.
    The dust will be covered with their fat.

That’s because the Lord has set aside a day to pay Edom back.
    He has set aside a year to pay them back. He will pay them back for what they did to Zion.
The streams of Edom will be turned into tar.
    Its dust will be turned into blazing sulfur.
    Its land will become burning tar.

Their land will be drenched with blood,(C)
    and the dust will be soaked with fat.

For the Lord has a day(D) of vengeance,(E)

Edom’s streams will be turned into pitch,
    her dust into burning sulfur;(G)
    her land will become blazing pitch!
