Isaias
Hebrew Bible
Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904
18 And bows shall dash youths in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not have mercy on children.
19 And Babylon, the beauty of kingdoms, the glory of the pride of the Chaldees, shall be as ’s overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 It shall not inhabited for ever, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation; neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there, neither shall shepherds make (flocks) to lie down dwarf. But desert creatures shall lie there; and their houses shall groaners fill; and ostriches shall dwell there; and shaggy beasts shall dance there.
22 And wolves shall howl in their castles, and jackals in palaces ’of pleasure; and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.
XIV. 1 For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet (again) choose Israel, and set them on their own ground: and the stranger shall join himself unto them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
