Isaiah 34:13-15
New American Standard Bible
13 Thorns will come up in its (A)fortified towers,
Weeds and thistles in its fortified cities;
It will also be a haunt of (B)jackals
And a habitat of ostriches.
14 The desert (C)creatures will meet with the [a]wolves,
The [b](D)goat also will cry to its kind.
Yes, the [c]night-bird will settle there
And will find herself a resting place.
15 The tree snake will make its nest and lay eggs there,
And it will hatch and gather them under its [d]protection.
Yes, (E)the [e]hawks will be gathered there,
Every one with its kind.
