Zephaniah 2:13-15
New King James Version
13 And He will stretch out His hand against the north,
(A)Destroy Assyria,
And make Nineveh a desolation,
As dry as the wilderness.
14 The herds shall lie down in her midst,
(B)Every beast of the nation.
Both the (C)pelican and the bittern
Shall lodge on the capitals of her pillars;
Their voice shall sing in the windows;
Desolation shall be at the threshold;
For He will lay bare the (D)cedar work.
15 This is the rejoicing city
(E)That dwelt securely,
(F)That said in her heart,
“I am it, and there is none besides me.”
How has she become a desolation,
A place for beasts to lie down!
Everyone who passes by her
(G)Shall hiss and (H)shake his fist.

Assyria
13 He will stretch out his hand against the north
and destroy Assyria,(A)
leaving Nineveh(B) utterly desolate
and dry as the desert.(C)
14 Flocks and herds(D) will lie down there,
creatures of every kind.
The desert owl(E) and the screech owl(F)
will roost on her columns.
Their hooting will echo through the windows,
rubble will fill the doorways,
the beams of cedar will be exposed.
15 This is the city of revelry(G)
that lived in safety.(H)
She said to herself,
“I am the one! And there is none besides me.”(I)
What a ruin she has become,
a lair for wild beasts!(J)
All who pass by her scoff(K)
and shake their fists.(L)

Matthew 19:23-30
New King James Version
With God All Things Are Possible(A)
23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that (B)it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
25 When His disciples heard it, they were greatly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but (C)with God all things are possible.”
27 Then Peter answered and said to Him, “See, (D)we have left all and followed You. Therefore what shall we have?”
28 So Jesus said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, (E)you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 (F)And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother [a]or wife or children or [b]lands, for My name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life. 30 (G)But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

New International Version
23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich(A) to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”
25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”
26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”(B)
27 Peter answered him, “We have left everything to follow you!(C) What then will there be for us?”
28 Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne,(D) you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.(E) 29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife[a] or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.(F) 30 But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.(G)
