Zephaniah 2:12-14
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
12 You also, O Ethiopians,[a]
shall be killed by my sword.
13 And he will stretch out his hand against the north,
and destroy Assyria;
and he will make Nineveh a desolation,
a dry waste like the desert.
14 Herds shall lie down in it,
every wild animal;[b]
the desert-owl[c] and the screech-owl[d]
shall lodge on its capitals;
the owl[e] shall hoot at the window,
the raven[f] croak on the threshold;
for its cedar-work will be laid bare.
