Come near, you nations, to hear! 1Co 10:26Isa 1:2Isa 41:1Isa 43:9Deu 32:1Isa 33:13Jer 22:29Mic 6:1-2
Listen, you peoples.
Let the earth and all it contains hear,
the world, and everything that comes from it.
For the LORD is enraged against all the nations, Jer 25:15-29Zep 3:8Amo 1:1-2Isa 13:5Isa 30:25Isa 30:27-30Jol 3:9-14Zec 14:12-16
and angry with all their armies.
He has utterly destroyed them.
He has given them over for slaughter.
Their slain will also be cast out, Jol 2:20Ezk 39:4Isa 34:72Ki 9:35-37Amo 4:10Ezk 14:19Ezk 32:5-6Ezk 35:6
and the stench of their dead bodies will come up.
The mountains will melt in their blood.
All of the army of the sky will be dissolved. Rev 6:13-14Mat 24:29Ezk 32:7-8Jol 3:152Pe 3:7-12Mrk 13:24-25Psa 102:25-26Jer 4:23-24
The sky will be rolled up like a scroll,
and all its armies will fade away,
as a leaf fades from off a vine or a fig tree.
For my sword has drunk its fill in the sky. Jer 46:10Amo 1:11-12Isa 63:1Mal 1:4Ezk 25:12-14Jer 49:7-22Deu 29:18-21Deu 32:14
Behold, it will come down on Edom,
and on the people of my curse, for judgment.
The LORD’s sword is filled with blood. Isa 63:1Jer 49:13Deu 32:14Ezk 21:4-5Ezk 39:17-20Isa 34:5Isa 63:3Jer 50:27
It is covered with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats,
with the fat of the kidneys of rams;
for the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
The wild oxen will come down with them, Num 23:22Psa 68:30Jer 50:27Deu 33:17Jer 46:21Jer 50:11Job 39:9-10Num 24:8
and the young bulls with the mighty bulls;
and their land will be drunken with blood,
and their dust made greasy with fat.
For the LORD has a day of vengeance, Isa 63:4Isa 61:2Isa 35:4Jer 46:10Psa 94:1Deu 32:35Isa 26:21Isa 49:26
a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
Its streams will be turned into pitch, Deu 29:23Psa 11:6Gen 19:28Job 18:15Jud 1:7Luk 17:29Rev 19:20Rev 21:8
its dust into sulfur,
and its land will become burning pitch.
It won’t be quenched night or day. Rev 19:3Isa 13:20Isa 66:24Mal 1:3-4Ezk 29:11Isa 1:31Rev 14:10-11Rev 18:18
Its smoke will go up forever.
From generation to generation, it will lie waste.
No one will pass through it forever and ever.
But the pelican and the porcupine will possess it. 2Ki 21:13Lam 2:8Zep 2:14Rev 18:22Sa 8:2Isa 14:23Isa 13:20-22Isa 24:10
The owl and the raven will dwell in it.
He will stretch the line of confusion over it,
and the plumb line of emptiness.
They shall call its nobles to the kingdom, but none shall be there; Isa 3:6-81Co 13:21Co 8:42Co 12:11Ecc 10:16-17Isa 41:11-12Isa 41:24Jer 27:20
and all its princes shall be nothing.
Thorns will come up in its palaces, Jer 10:22Jer 9:11Mal 1:3Psa 44:19Hos 9:6Isa 13:21-22Isa 32:13-14Isa 35:7
nettles and thistles in its fortresses;
and it will be a habitation of jackals,
a court for ostriches.
The wild animals of the desert will meet with the wolves, Isa 13:21-22
and the wild goat will cry to his fellow.
Yes, the night creature 1 shall settle there,
and shall find herself a place of rest.
The arrow snake will make her nest there, Deu 14:13
and lay, hatch, and gather under her shade.
Yes, the kites will be gathered there, every one with her mate.
Search in the book of the LORD, and read: Psa 33:9Jos 1:8Mat 5:18Isa 30:8Psa 33:6Pro 23:12Jhn 10:35Luk 21:33
not one of these will be missing.
None will lack her mate.
For my mouth has commanded,
and his Spirit has gathered them.
He has cast the lot for them, Isa 34:10Act 17:26Isa 13:20-22Isa 17:14Jer 13:25Jos 18:8Psa 78:55Act 13:19
and his hand has divided it to them with a measuring line.
They shall possess it forever.
From generation to generation they will dwell in it.
