Isaiah 34:1

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.

Isaiah 34:1; Isaiah 35:1 form one prophecy, the former part of which denounces Gods judgments against His people's enemies, of whom Edom is the representative; the second part the flourishing state of the Church consequent on those judgments. This forms the termination of the prophecies of the first part of Isaiah, Isaiah 36:1; Isaiah 37:1; Isaiah 38:1; Isaiah 39:1 being historical, and is a kind of summary of what went before, setting forth the one main truth, Israel shall be delivered from all its foes, and happier times shall succeed under Messiah.
