Isaiah 34:9-11

English Standard Version

^9 (A)And the streams of Edom^[a] shall be turned into pitch,
    and her soil into sulfur;
    her land shall become burning pitch.
¹⁰ Night and day ^(B)it shall not be quenched;
    ^(C)its smoke shall go up forever.
^(D)From generation to generation it shall lie waste;
    none shall pass through it forever and ever.
^11 (E)But the hawk and the porcupine^[b] shall possess it,
    the owl and the raven shall dwell in it.
^(F)He shall stretch the line of ^(G)confusion^[c] over it,
    and the plumb line of emptiness.
