9:5 Indeed every boot that marches and shakes the earth 1
and every garment dragged through blood
is used as fuel for the fire.
34:9 Edom’s 2 streams will be turned into pitch
and her soil into brimstone;
her land will become burning pitch.
2:15 Like lions his enemies roar victoriously over him;
they raise their voices in triumph. 3
They have laid his land waste;
his cities have been burned down and deserted. 4
