Isaiah 34:10-12
New Living Translation
10 This judgment on Edom will never end;
the smoke of its burning will rise forever.
The land will lie deserted from generation to generation.
No one will live there anymore.
11 It will be haunted by the desert owl and the screech owl,
the great owl and the raven.[a]
For God will measure that land carefully;
he will measure it for chaos and destruction.
12 It will be called the Land of Nothing,
and all its nobles will soon be gone.[b]
Isaiah 34:10-12
New International Version
10 It will not be quenched(A) night or day;
its smoke will rise forever.(B)
From generation to generation(C) it will lie desolate;(D)
no one will ever pass through it again.
11 The desert owl[a](E) and screech owl[b] will possess it;
the great owl[c] and the raven(F) will nest there.
God will stretch out over Edom(G)
the measuring line of chaos(H)
and the plumb line(I) of desolation.
12 Her nobles will have nothing there to be called a kingdom,
all her princes(J) will vanish(K) away.
