13He shall stretch out his hand upon the north and cause Assyria to perish, and he shall make Nineveh a devastation, a dryness like the wilderness.14Flocks shall lie down in her midst, every living thing of a nation; also the pelican, also the porcupine, shall lodge in her capitals; a voice shall sing in the window, desolation in the threshold, for he has uncovered the cedar.15This is the jubilant city that dwells in security, that says in her heart, "I am, and there is still no end of me"; how she has become a horror, a resting place for every living thing; everyone who passes upon her shall whistle and shake his hand.
