Isaiah 34:9-11

New American Standard Bible

^9 [a]Its streams will be turned into pitch,
And its loose earth into ^(A)brimstone,
And its land will become burning pitch.
¹⁰ It will ^(B)not be extinguished night or day;
Its ^(C)smoke will go up forever.
From ^(D)generation to generation it will be desolate;
^(E)None will pass through it forever and ever.
¹¹ But ^[b](F)pelican and hedgehog will possess it,
And ^[c]owl and raven will dwell in it;
And He will stretch over it the ^(G)line of ^[d]desolation
And the ^[e]plumb line of emptiness.
