⁵ My sword^(A) has drunk its fill in the heavens;
    see, it descends in judgment on Edom,^(B)
    the people I have totally destroyed.^(C)
6 The sword^(D) 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^(E) in Bozrah^(F)
    and a great slaughter^(G) in the land of Edom.
⁷ And the wild oxen^(H) will fall with them,
    the bull calves and the great bulls.^(I)
Their land will be drenched with blood,^(J)
    and the dust will be soaked with fat.

⁸ For the Lord has a day^(K) of vengeance,^(L)
    a year of retribution,^(M) to uphold Zion’s cause.

“It is I, proclaiming victory,
    mighty to save.”^(E)

² Why are your garments red,
    like those of one treading the winepress?^(F)

³ “I have trodden the winepress^(G) alone;
    from the nations no one was with me.
I trampled^(H) them in my anger
    and trod them down in my wrath;^(I)
their blood spattered my garments,^(J)
    and I stained all my clothing.

“Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?^(D)
    Has counsel perished from the prudent?
    Has their wisdom decayed?

²⁰ Therefore, hear what the Lord has planned against Edom,^(A)
    what he has purposed^(B) against those who live in Teman:^(C)
The young of the flock^(D) will be dragged away;
    their pasture will be appalled at their fate.^(E)
