Isaiah 13:20-22

Good News Translation

²⁰ No one will ever live there again. No wandering Arab will ever pitch a tent there, and no shepherd will ever pasture a flock there. ^21 (A)It will be a place where desert animals live and where owls build their nests. Ostriches will live there, and wild goats will prance through the ruins. ²² The towers and palaces will echo with the cries of hyenas and jackals. Babylon's time has come! Her days are almost over.”
