Nobody will bury the dead bodies
    of those who have died in battle.
The smell of their dead bodies will be everywhere.
    Their blood will pour down the mountains.
The stars in the sky will slowly disappear.
    The sky will close up like a book.
All the stars will fall,
    like dry leaves that fall from a vine.
They will drop like figs from a fig tree,
    when they become dry.
The Lord says,
‘My sword has finished its work in the skies.
    Now it will come to punish Edom.
Those are the people that I have decided to destroy.’

    the mountains will be soaked with their blood.(D)
All the stars in the sky will be dissolved(E)
    and the heavens rolled up(F) like a scroll;
all the starry host will fall(G)
    like withered(H) leaves from the vine,
    like shriveled figs from the fig tree.

My sword(I) has drunk its fill in the heavens;
    see, it descends in judgment on Edom,(J)
    the people I have totally destroyed.(K)
