Isaiah 34:11-14
New International Version
11 The desert owl[a](A) and screech owl[b] will possess it;
the great owl[c] and the raven(B) will nest there.
God will stretch out over Edom(C)
the measuring line of chaos(D)
and the plumb line(E) of desolation.
12 Her nobles will have nothing there to be called a kingdom,
all her princes(F) will vanish(G) away.
13 Thorns(H) will overrun her citadels,
nettles and brambles her strongholds.(I)
She will become a haunt for jackals,(J)
a home for owls.(K)
14 Desert creatures(L) will meet with hyenas,(M)
and wild goats will bleat to each other;
there the night creatures(N) will also lie down
and find for themselves places of rest.

12 They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom, but none shall be there, and all her princes shall be nothing.
13 And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, and a court for owls.
14 The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest.
