Isaiah 34

1 Nations, come near to hear; and peoples, give attention! Let the earth hear, and its fullness, the world and all its offspring.

2 For the wrath of Jehovah is on all the nations, and fury on all their army; He has devoted them; He gave them to slaughter.

3 And their slain shall be thrown out; and the stench from their carcasses shall go up; and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
