Their blood will run like rivers down the mountains,
    their corpses tossed out, heaped up, and randomly piled in a great stinking mound.
All the stars in the once-vibrant heavens will vanish:
    and the sky will be rolled up like a scroll.
All the starry hosts will wither and fall,
    like grape leaves crisped by fall or fig leaves shriveled by winter.[a]

Eternal One: For once my sword has had its fill in the heavens;
        I’ll set it against Edom, those people who despise My own.
    I have marked Edom for judgment and destruction.

  1. 34:4 Matthew 24:29

Their slain(A) will be thrown out,
    their dead bodies(B) will stink;(C)
    the mountains will be soaked with their blood.(D)
All the stars in the sky will be dissolved(E)
    and the heavens rolled up(F) like a scroll;
all the starry host will fall(G)
    like withered(H) leaves from the vine,
    like shriveled figs from the fig tree.

My sword(I) has drunk its fill in the heavens;
    see, it descends in judgment on Edom,(J)
    the people I have totally destroyed.(K)

Their slain also shall be cast out, and their stink shall come up out of their carcases, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.

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.
