Amplified Bible

³⁹
“Therefore ^[a]wild beasts of the desert will live there [in Babylon] with the jackals;
The ostriches also will live there,
And it will never again be inhabited [with people]
Or lived in from generation to generation.^(A)
⁴⁰
“As when God overthrew Sodom
And Gomorrah and their neighboring cities,” says the Lord,
“So no man will live there;
Nor shall any son of man live there.”^(B)

⁴¹
“Behold, a people is coming from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Will be stirring from the remote parts of the earth.
