Come near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken, ye people: let the earth hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.

The verse 1 is found in chapter 34 of Isaiah. Yahweh’s judgment extends over the nations, with Edom as a prominent representation of the enemy. The imagery of sacrifice and devastation turns judgment into a solemn and comprehensive scene. Against human powers, only Yahweh’s word remains firm: his sentence has been spoken and will be fulfilled.

Kommt herzu, ihr Heiden, und höret, ihr Völker, merkt auf! Die Erde höre zu und was darinnen ist, der Weltkreis samt seinem Gewächs!
Gentes, allegaos a oír; y escuchad, pueblos. Oiga la tierra y lo que la hinche, el mundo y todo lo que él produce.
Acérquense, naciones, para oír; presten atención, pueblos. Que escuche la tierra y cuanto la llena, el mundo y todo lo que de él brota.
Approchez, nations, pour entendre! Peuples, soyez attentifs! Que la terre écoute, elle et ce qui la remplit, Le monde et tout ce qu'il produit!
ACCOSTATEVI, nazioni, per ascoltare; e voi, popoli, siate attenti; ascolti la terra, e ciò che è in essa; il mondo, e tutto ciò che in esso è prodotto.
CHEGAI-VOS, nações, para ouvir, e vós povos, escutai; ouça a terra, e a sua plenitude, o mundo, e tudo quanto produz.
列國啊,要近前來聽! 萬民哪,要側耳而聽! 全地和其上所充滿的, 世界和其中所出的,都應當聽!
