Isaiah 34:10-12

Lexham English Bible

¹⁰ Night and day it shall not be quenched;
    its smoke shall go up forever.
From generation to generation it shall be in ruins;
    forever and ever there will be no one who passes through her.
¹¹ But^[a] the large bird and the hedgehog shall take possession of it,
    and the owl and the raven shall live in it.
And he shall stretch the measuring line of confusion out over it,
    and the plumb line of emptiness.
¹² Its nobles—but no kingdom is there—shall call,
    and all its princes shall be nothing.
