1 Nations, come near and listen, here is news for all mankind; give heed the whole world must, and all that lives on it, earth and all earth breeds. 2 On all nations the Lord will be avenged, never an armed host but must feel the blow, forfeit, all of them, and doomed to perish. 3 See where they lie slain, their carrion polluting the air, the very hills rotted away with their blood! 4 Fade they into nothing, yonder heavenly powers; shrivel, like a scroll, the heavens themselves, nor any star there but must wither, as leaf withers on vine or fig-tree; 5 in the very heavens my sword shall drink deep of blood. On Edom doubt not it shall fall, death-sentence to execute, 6 the sword of the Lord, glutted with blood! Well nourished with fat, where it drank the blood of lambs and goats, of stalled rams! There are victims ready for the Lord in Bosra; great slaughter then shall be in the land of Edom. 7 Down go the wild bulls with the rest, the bullocks, leaders of the herd; earth must be sodden with their blood, rich grow the soil with fat of their pampered kings. 8 Swiftly it comes, the day of the Lord’s vengeance, the year that shall see Sion’s wrongs redressed. 9 Pitch they shall be henceforward, the brooks of Edom, its soil brimstone; a land of burning pitch, 10 never quenched night or day, its smoke going up eternally; age after age it shall yet be desolate, untravelled for ever by the foot of man. 11 Pelican and hedge-hog shall claim it, ibis and raven be its tenants; plotted with the Lord’s measuring-line, an empty void, tried with his plummet, a hanging ruin. 12 Cry they for a king to govern it, that has no chieftain now; all its princes have vanished. 13 Thorns and nettles shall grow in its palaces, briers over its battlements; it shall be the lair of serpents, the pasture-ground of the ostrich. 14 Devils and monstrous forms shall haunt it, satyr call out to satyr; there the vampire lies down and finds rest. 15 Hedge-hog makes a nest to rear its young, nurtured safely in yonder shade; vulture there with vulture meets.[1]

Accedite, gentes, et audite;
et populi, attendite:
audiat terra, et plenitudo ejus;
orbis, et omne germen ejus. 2
Quia indignatio Domini super omnes gentes,
et furor super universam militiam eorum:
interfecit eos, et dedit eos in occisionem. 3
Interfecti eorum projicientur,
et de cadaveribus eorum ascendet fœtor;
tabescent montes a sanguine eorum. 4
Et tabescet omnis militia cælorum,
et complicabuntur sicut liber cæli:
et omnis militia eorum defluet,
sicut defluit folium de vinea et de ficu. 5
Quoniam inebriatus est in cælo gladius meus;
ecce super Idumæam descendet,
et super populum interfectionis meæ, ad judicium. 6
Gladius Domini repletus est sanguine,
incrassatus est adipe,
de sanguine agnorum et hircorum,
de sanguine medullatorum arietum:
victima enim Domini in Bosra,
et interfectio magna in terra Edom. 7
Et descendent unicornes cum eis,
et tauri cum potentibus;
inebriabitur terra eorum sanguine,
et humus eorum adipe pinguium. 8
Quia dies ultionis Domini,
annus retributionum judicii Sion. 9
Et convertentur torrentes ejus in picem,
et humus ejus in sulphur;
et erit terra ejus in picem ardentem. 10
Nocte et die non extinguetur,
in sempiternum ascendet fumus ejus,
a generatione in generationem desolabitur,
in sæcula sæculorum non erit transiens per eam. 11
Et possidebunt illam onocrotalus et ericius;
ibis et corvus habitabunt in ea:
et extendetur super eam mensura, ut redigatur ad nihilum,
et perpendiculum in desolationem. 12
Nobiles ejus non erunt ibi; regem potius invocabunt,
et omnes principes ejus erunt in nihilum. 13
Et orientur in domibus ejus spinæ et urticæ,
et paliurus in munitionibus ejus;
et erit cubile draconum,
et pascua struthionum. 14
Et occurrent dæmonia onocentauris,
et pilosus clamabit alter ad alterum;
ibi cubavit lamia,
et invenit sibi requiem. 15
Ibi habuit foveam ericius, et enutrivit catulos,
et circumfodit, et fovit in umbra ejus;
illuc congregati sunt milvi, alter ad alterum.

16 Turn back, when the time comes, to this record of divine prophecy,[2] and read it afresh; you shall learn, then, that none of these signs was lacking, none waited for the coming of the next. The Lord it was entrusted me with the prophecies I utter; by his Spirit that strange company was called together. 17 For each its own dwelling-place; in his hand was the line that measured it out to them; there they shall live on for ever, to all ages undisturbed.

16
Requirite diligenter in libro Domini, et legite:
Unum ex eis non defuit,
alter alterum non quæsivit;
quia quod ex ore meo procedit, ille mandavit,
et spiritus ejus ipse congregavit ea. 17
Et ipse misit eis sortem,
et manus ejus divisit eam illis in mensuram:
usque in æternum possidebunt eam;
in generationem et generationem habitabunt in ea.

[1] The names of the beasts and monsters mentioned in verses 11-15 cannot be given with certainty. Some would understand a bird (perhaps the bittern) in place of the hedge-hog in verse 11; and in verse 15, where a different and very rare word is used in the Hebrew text, there is no clear agreement what animal, bird, or reptile is meant.

[2] ‘Turn back, when the time comes, to this record of divine prophecy’; literally, ‘search carefully in the book of the Lord’. The sense given above is that commonly adopted, but the text of the passage is uncertain; the Septuagint Greek has, ‘there the hinds gather, and meet face to face’.
