Zephaniah 2:13-15

English Standard Version Anglicised

¹³ And he will stretch out his hand against the north
    ^(A)and destroy Assyria,
and he ^(B)will make Nineveh a desolation,
    a dry waste like the desert.
^14 (C)Herds shall lie down in her midst,
    all kinds of beasts;^[a]
(D)even the owl and the hedgehog^[b]
    shall lodge in her capitals;
a voice shall hoot in the window;
    devastation will be on the threshold;
    for ^(E)her cedar work will be laid bare.
¹⁵ This is the exultant city
    ^(F)that lived securely,
that said in her heart,
    “I am, and there is no one else.”
What a desolation she has become,
    ^(G)a lair for wild beasts!
^(H)Everyone who passes by her
    hisses and ^(I)shakes his fist.
