Isaiah 34:9-11

Contemporary English Version

⁹ Edom's streams will turn into tar
    and its soil into sulfur—
then the whole country
    will go up in flames.
^10 (A) It will burn night and day
    and never stop smoking.
Edom will be a desert,
    generation after generation;
no one will ever travel
    through that land.
¹¹ Owls, hawks, and wild animals^[a]
    will make it their home.
God will leave it in ruins,
    merely a pile of rocks.
