Context Readings

Judgment On The Nations

9 Thy floods shall be turned to pitch, and thine earth to brimstone, and therewith shall the land be kindled, 10 so that it shall not be quenched day nor night, but smoke evermore and so forth to lie waste. And no man shall go through thy land forever. 11 But Pelicans, Storks, great Owls, and Ravens shall have it in possession, and dwell therein. For God shall spread out the line of desolation upon it, and weight it with the stones of emptiness.
