Isaiah 34:5-8

^{Tools
5}

For ^(A)My sword is satiated in heaven,
Behold it shall descend for judgment upon ^(B)Edom
And upon the people whom I have ^(C)devoted to destruction.

^{Tools

The sword of the Lord is filled with blood,
It is ^(a)sated with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats,
With the fat of the kidneys of rams.
For the Lord has a sacrifice in ^(D)Bozrah
And a great slaughter in the land of ^(E)Edom.

^(F)Wild oxen will also ^(b)fall with them
And ^(G)young bulls with strong ones;
Thus their land will be ^(H)soaked with blood,
And their dust ^(c)become greasy with fat.

^{Tools
8}

For the Lord has a day of ^(I)vengeance,
A year of recompense for the ^(d)cause of Zion.
