49:17 “Edom will become an object of horror.
All who pass by it will be filled with horror;
they will hiss out their scorn
because of all the disasters that have happened to it.
49:18 Edom will be destroyed like Sodom and Gomorrah
and the towns that were around them.
No one will live there.
No human being will settle in it,”
says the Lord.
9:11 The Lord said,
“I will make Jerusalem
Jackals will make their home there.
I will destroy the towns of Judah
so that no one will be able to live in them.”
10:22 Listen! News is coming even now.
The rumble of a great army is heard approaching
It is coming to turn the towns of Judah into rubble,
places where only jackals live.
50:39 Therefore desert creatures and jackals will live there.
Ostriches
But no people will ever live there again.
No one will dwell there for all time to come.
50:40 I will destroy Babylonia just like I did
Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighboring towns.
No one will live there.
No human being will settle in it,”
says the Lord.
51:37 Babylon will become a heap of ruins.
Jackals will make their home there.
It will become an object of horror and of hissing scorn,
a place where no one lives.
13:20 No one will live there again;
no one will ever reside there again.
No bedouin
no shepherds will rest their flocks
13:21 Wild animals will rest there,
the ruined
Ostriches will live there,
wild goats will skip among the ruins.
13:22 Wild dogs will yip in her ruined fortresses,
jackals will yelp in the once-splendid palaces.
Her time is almost up,
her days will not be prolonged.
14:23 “I will turn her into a place that is overrun with wild animals
and covered with pools of stagnant water.
I will get rid of her, just as one sweeps away dirt with a broom,”
says the Lord who commands armies.
34:9 Edom’s
and her soil into brimstone;
her land will become burning pitch.
34:10 Night and day it will burn;
its smoke will ascend continually.
Generation after generation it will be a wasteland
and no one will ever pass through it again.
34:11 Owls and wild animals
all kinds of wild birds
The Lord
the measuring line of ruin
and the plumb line
34:12 Her nobles will have nothing left to call a kingdom
and all her officials will disappear.
34:13 Her fortresses will be overgrown with thorns;
thickets and weeds will grow
Jackals will settle there;
ostriches will live there.
34:14 Wild animals and wild dogs will congregate there;
wild goats will bleat to one another.
Yes, nocturnal animals
and make for themselves a nest.
34:15 Owls
they will hatch them and protect them.
Yes, hawks
each with its mate.
34:16 Carefully read the scroll of the Lord!
Not one of these creatures will be missing,
none will lack a mate.
For the Lord has issued the decree,
and his own spirit gathers them.
34:17 He assigns them their allotment;
he measures out their assigned place.
They will live there
they will settle in it through successive generations.
2:9 Therefore, as surely as I live,” says the Lord who commands armies, the God of Israel,
“be certain that Moab will become like Sodom
and the Ammonites like Gomorrah.
They will be overrun by weeds,
filled with salt pits,
and permanently desolate.
Those of my people who are left
those who are left in Judah
2:13 The Lord
and destroy Assyria.
He will make Nineveh a heap of ruins;
it will be as barren
2:14 Flocks and herds
as well as every kind of wild animal.
Owls
they will hoot through the windows.
Rubble will cover the thresholds;
even the cedar work
2:15 This is how the once-proud city will end up
the city that was so secure.
She thought to herself,
What a heap of ruins she has become, a place where wild animals live!
Everyone who passes by her taunts her
“Fallen, fallen, is Babylon the great!
She
a haunt
a haunt for every unclean bird,
a haunt for every unclean and detested beast.
18:21 Then
“With this kind of sudden violent force
Babylon the great city will be thrown down
and it will never be found again!
18:22 And the sound of the harpists, musicians,
flute players, and trumpeters
will never be heard in you
No
will ever be found in you again;
the noise of a mill
