Isaiah 34:9


Isaiah 34:8 Isaiah 34:9 (KJV) Isaiah 34:10
For [it is] the day of the LORD'S vengeance, [and] the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.
And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.
