Zephaniah 2:13-15

New International Version

Assyria

¹³He will stretch out his hand against the north
    and destroy Assyria,^(A)
leaving Nineveh^(B) utterly desolate
    and dry as the desert.^(C)
¹⁴Flocks and herds^(D) will lie down there,
    creatures of every kind.
The desert owl^(E) and the screech owl^(F)
    will roost on her columns.
Their hooting will echo through the windows,
    rubble will fill the doorways,
    the beams of cedar will be exposed.
¹⁵This is the city of revelry^(G)
    that lived in safety.^(H)
She said to herself,
    “I am the one! And there is none besides me.”^(I)
What a ruin she has become,
    a lair for wild beasts!^(J)
All who pass by her scoff^(K)
    and shake their fists.^(L)
