And His fury against all their armies;
He has utterly destroyed them,
He has given them over to the aslaughter.
aTheir stench shall rise from their corpses,
And the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll;
bAll their host shall fall down
As the leaf falls from the vine,
And as cfruit falling from a fig tree.
Indeed it bshall come down on Edom,
And on the people of My curse, for judgment.
It is made1 overflowing with fatness,
With the blood of lambs and goats,
With the fat of the kidneys of rams.
For bthe Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
And the young bulls with the mighty bulls;
Their land shall be soaked with blood,
And their dust1 saturated with fatness.”
And its dust into brimstone;
Its land shall become burning pitch.
aIts smoke shall ascend forever.
bFrom generation to generation it shall lie waste;
No one shall pass through it forever and ever.
Also the owl and the raven shall dwell in it.
And bHe shall stretch out over it
The line of confusion and the stones of emptiness.
But none shall be there, and all its princes shall be nothing.

Isaiah 34:4
Dissolved - The sun, moon, and stars. So great shall be the confusion and consternation of mankind, as if all the frame of the creation were broken into pieces. It is usual for prophetic writers, both in the Old and New Testament, to represent great and general calamities, in such words and phrases, as properly agree to the day of judgment; as on the contrary, the glorious deliverances of God's people, in such expressions, as properly agree to the resurrection from the dead.
