Zephaniah 2:14-15
Revised Standard Version
Zephaniah 2:14-15
Revised Standard Version
14 Herds shall lie down in the midst of her,
all the beasts of the field;[a]
the vulture[b] and the hedgehog
shall lodge in her capitals;
the owl[c] shall hoot in the window,
the raven[d] croak on the threshold;
for her cedar work will be laid bare.
15 This is the exultant city
that dwelt secure,
that said to herself,
“I am and there is none else.”
What a desolation she has become,
a lair for wild beasts!
Every one who passes by her
hisses and shakes his fist.
