‏ Zephaniah 2:13-15


13 And He will astretch out His hand against the north
And eliminate bAssyria,
And He will make cNineveh a desolation,
Parched like the wilderness.

14 Flocks will lie down in her midst,
Or All kinds of beasts in crowds; lit Every kind of beast of a nation
All animals that range in herds;
Both the
Or owl; or jackdaw
fpelican and the hedgehog
Will spend their nights in
Lit her capitals
the tops of her pillars;
Lit A voice
Birds will sing in the window,
Devastation will be on the threshold;
For He has uncovered the cedar work.

15 This is the ipresumptuous city
That jdwells securely,
Who says in her heart,
kI am, and there is no one besides me.”
How she has become a ldesolation,
A resting place for animals!
mEveryone who passes by her will
Or whistle
hiss
And wave his hand in contempt.
