Yeshayah 34:11-13
Orthodox Jewish Bible
11 But the desert owl and the screech owl shall possess it; even the yanshuf (great owl) and the orev (raven) shall dwell in it; and He shall stretch out upon it the measuring line of tohu, and the plumbline of vohu [See Genesis 1:2].
12 For the nobles thereof there shall be nothing to call a maluchah (kingdom) and all her sarim shall come to naught.
13 And sirim (thorns) shall come up in her citadels, nettles and brambles in the strongholds thereof; and it shall become the habitation of jackals, and the abode for banot ya’anah (ostriches).
