5  For my sword has drunk its fill in the heavens;

behold, it descends for judgment upon ^aEdom,

upon the people ^bI have devoted to destruction.

6  The Lord has a sword; it is sated with blood;

it is gorged with fat,

with the blood of lambs and goats,

with the fat of the kidneys of rams.

^cFor the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,

a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

7  ^dWild oxen shall ^efall with them,

and ^fyoung steers with ^fthe mighty bulls.

Their land shall drink its fill of blood,

and their soil shall be gorged with fat.
