Isaiah:34:4-17
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved ,
and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll :
and all their host shall fall down ,
as the leaf falleth off from the vine ,
and as a falling fig from the fig tree .
*
For my sword shall be bathed in heaven :
behold ,
it shall come down upon Idumea ,
and upon the people of my curse ,
to judgment .
*
The sword of the LORD is filled with blood ,
it is made fat with fatness ,
and with the blood of lambs and goats ,
with the fat of the kidneys of rams :
for the LORD hath a sacrifice in Bozrah ,
and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea .
*
And the unicorns shall come down with them ,
and the bullocks with the bulls ;
and their land shall be soaked with blood ,
and their dust made fat with fatness .
*
For it is the day of the LORD '
S vengeance ,
and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion .
*
And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch ,
and the dust thereof into brimstone ,
and the land thereof shall become burning pitch .
*
It shall not be quenched night nor day ;
the smoke thereof shall go up for ever :
from generation to generation it shall lie waste ;
none shall pass through it for ever and ever .
*
But the cormorant and the bittern shall possess it ;
the owl also and the raven shall dwell in it :
and he shall stretch out upon it the line of confusion ,
and the stones of emptiness .
*
They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom ,
but none shall be there ,
and all her princes shall be nothing .
*
And thorns shall come up in her palaces ,
nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof :
and it shall be an habitation of dragons ,
and a court for owls .
*
The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island ,
and the satyr shall cry to his fellow ;
the screech owl also shall rest there ,
and find for herself a place of rest .
*
There shall the great owl make her nest ,
and lay ,
and hatch ,
and gather under her shadow :
there shall the vultures also be gathered ,
every one with her mate .
*
Seek ye out of the book of the LORD ,
and read :
no one of these shall fail ,
none shall want her mate :
for my mouth it hath commanded ,
and his spirit it hath gathered them .
*
And he hath cast the lot for them ,
and his hand hath divided it unto them by line :
they shall possess it for ever ,
from generation to generation shall they dwell therein .
