Isaiah 34:8

Judgment On The Nations

⁷
Wild oxen will also fall with them
And the young bulls with the strong bulls;
And their land will be soaked with blood,
And their dust made greasy with fat.
⁸ 
For the Lord has a day of vengeance,
A year of retribution for the cause of Zion.
⁹
The streams [of Edom] will be turned into pitch,
And its dust into brimstone,
And its land will become burning pitch.
