8For the LORD has a day of vengeance,
a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
9Edom’s streams will be turned to tar,
and her soil to sulfur;
her land will become a blazing pitch.
10It will not be quenched — day or night.
Its smoke will ascend forever.
From generation to generation it will lie desolate;
no one will ever again pass through it.
— Isaiah 34:8-10
