Isaiah 13:19-22

19And Babylon, athe glory of kingdoms,
the splendor and pomp of the Chaldeans,
will be blike Sodom and Gomorrah
when God overthrew them.
20 cIt will never be inhabited
or lived in for all generations;
no dArab will pitch his tent there;
no eshepherds will make their flocks lie down there.
21But fwild animals will lie down there,
and their houses will be full of howling creatures;
there gostriches
Or owls
will dwell,
and there wild goats will dance.
22Hyenas
Or foxes
will cry in its towers,
and jjackals in kthe pleasant palaces;
its time is close at hand
and its days will not be prolonged.

Possibly porcupine, or owl
and pools of water, and I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” declares the Lord of hosts.

but shall be an utter desolation;

qand hiss because of all her wounds.
