All the stars in the sky will rot.
    The heavens will be rolled up like a scroll.
    The stars will fall
    like leaves from a grapevine,
    like green figs from a fig tree.
When my sword is covered with blood in the heavens,
    it will fall on Edom
        and on the people I’ve claimed for destruction.
Yahweh’s sword is covered with blood.
    It is covered with fat,
        with the blood of lambs and goats,
        with the fat of rams’ kidneys.
    Yahweh will receive a sacrifice in Bozrah,
    a huge slaughter in the land of Edom.

All the stars in the sky will be dissolved(A)
    and the heavens rolled up(B) like a scroll;
all the starry host will fall(C)
    like withered(D) leaves from the vine,
    like shriveled figs from the fig tree.

My sword(E) has drunk its fill in the heavens;
    see, it descends in judgment on Edom,(F)
    the people I have totally destroyed.(G)
The sword(H) of the Lord is bathed in blood,
    it is covered with fat—
the blood of lambs and goats,
    fat from the kidneys of rams.
For the Lord has a sacrifice(I) in Bozrah(J)
    and a great slaughter(K) in the land of Edom.
