and the plummet of chaos over it.(A)
12 They shall call its nobles No Kingdom There,
and all its princes shall be nothing.

nettles and thistles in its fortresses.
It shall be the haunt of jackals,
an abode for ostriches.(B)
14 Wildcats shall meet with hyenas;
goat-demons shall call to each other;
there also Lilith shall repose
and find a place to rest.(C)

and lay and hatch and brood in its shadow;
there also the buzzards shall gather,
each one with its mate.(D)
