Judgment On The Nations

9 Then shall the torrents thereof be turned into pitch, And the dust thereof, into brimstone, - So shall her land become burning pitch: 10 Neither night nor day, shall it be quenched, To times age-abiding, shall ascend the smoke thereof, - From generation to generation, shall it be waste, Never, never, shall any pass through it: 11 That the vomiting pelican and the bittern may possess it: And the great owl and the raven, dwell therein; Then will he stretch out over it The line of desolation, and The plummet of emptiness.
