Isaiah 13:20-22
Expanded Bible
20 No one will ever live there
or settle there ·again [from generation to generation].
No ·Arab [or bedouin; nomad] will put a tent there;
no shepherd will ·bring [bed down their] sheep there.
21 Only desert animals will live there,
and their houses will be full of ·wild dogs [or jackals; hyenas; howling creatures; or owls].
Owls will live there,
and wild goats will ·leap [skip] about in the houses.
22 ·Wolves [or Hyenas] will howl within the ·strong walls [citadels; towers],
and ·wild dogs [jackals] will bark in the ·beautiful [delightful] ·buildings [palaces].
·The end of Babylon is near [L Her time has nearly come];
·its time is almost over [L and her days will not be extended].”

New International Version
20 She will never be inhabited(A)
or lived in through all generations;
there no nomads(B) will pitch their tents,
there no shepherds will rest their flocks.
21 But desert creatures(C) will lie there,
jackals(D) will fill her houses;
there the owls(E) will dwell,
and there the wild goats(F) will leap about.
22 Hyenas(G) will inhabit her strongholds,(H)
jackals(I) her luxurious palaces.
Her time is at hand,(J)
and her days will not be prolonged.(K)
