Isaiah 34:12-14
New American Standard Bible
12 Its nobles—there is (A)no one there
Whom they may proclaim king—
And all its officials will be (B)nothing.
13 Thorns will come up in its (C)fortified towers,
Weeds and thistles in its fortified cities;
It will also be a haunt of (D)jackals
And a habitat of ostriches.
14 The desert (E)creatures will meet with the [a]wolves,
The [b](F)goat also will cry to its kind.
Yes, the [c]night-bird will settle there
And will find herself a resting place.

New International Version
12 Her nobles will have nothing there to be called a kingdom,
all her princes(A) will vanish(B) away.
13 Thorns(C) will overrun her citadels,
nettles and brambles her strongholds.(D)
She will become a haunt for jackals,(E)
a home for owls.(F)
14 Desert creatures(G) will meet with hyenas,(H)
and wild goats will bleat to each other;
there the night creatures(I) will also lie down
and find for themselves places of rest.
