8. For the Lord has a day of vengeance,a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
9. Its streams will be turned into pitch,its dust into sulpher,And its land will become burning pitch.
10. It won’t be quenched night nor day.Its smoke will go up forever.From generation to generation, it will lie waste.No one will pass through it forever and ever.
11. But the pelican and the porcupine will possess it.The owl and the raven will dwell in it.He will stretch the line of confusion over it,and the plumb line of emptiness.
