Isaiah 34:13-15
Lexham English Bible
13 And thorns shall go up her citadel fortress,
weeds[a] and thistle plants[b] in her fortresses;
and it shall be the settlement of jackals,
green grass for the daughters of an ostrich.
14 And desert creatures shall meet with hyenas,
and a goat-demon shall call to his neighbor;
surely there Lilith[c] shall repose,
and she shall find a resting place for herself.
15 There the owl shall nest and lay
and hatch and care for her chicks in her shadow;
surely there the birds of prey shall be gathered,
each one with her mate.

New International Version
13 Thorns(A) will overrun her citadels,
nettles and brambles her strongholds.(B)
She will become a haunt for jackals,(C)
a home for owls.(D)
14 Desert creatures(E) will meet with hyenas,(F)
and wild goats will bleat to each other;
there the night creatures(G) will also lie down
and find for themselves places of rest.
15 The owl will nest there and lay eggs,
she will hatch them, and care for her young
under the shadow of her wings;(H)
there also the falcons(I) will gather,
each with its mate.
