13 Then the Lord will turn against the north
    and punish Assyria.
He will destroy Nineveh.
    It will be dry like a desert.
14 Sheep and goats will lie down there.
    Wild animals will live there.
The owls and crows will sit
    on the stone pillars that are left standing.
Their calls will be heard through the windows.
    Trash will be in the doorways.
    The wooden boards of the buildings will be gone.
15 This is the happy and safe city.
    It thinks there is no one else as strong as it is.
But that city will be destroyed.
    Only animals will stay there.
Those who pass by will make fun
    and shake their fists.

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)
