Revised Standard Version

³⁹“Therefore wild beasts shall dwell with hyenas in Babylon, and ostriches shall dwell in her; she shall be peopled no more for ever, nor inhabited for all generations. ⁴⁰As when God overthrew Sodom and Gomor′rah and their neighbor cities, says the Lord, so no man shall dwell there, and no son of man shall sojourn in her.

⁴¹“Behold, a people comes from the north;
a mighty nation and many kings
are stirring from the farthest parts of the earth.
