Isaiah 34:6-8

Living Bible

⁶ The sword of the Lord is sated with blood; it is gorged with flesh as though used for slaying lambs and goats for sacrifice. For the Lord will slay a great sacrifice in Edom and make a mighty slaughter there. ⁷ The strongest will perish, young boys and veterans too. The land will be soaked with blood, and the soil made rich with fat. ⁸ For it is the day of vengeance, the year of recompense for what Edom has done to Israel.
