Zephaniah 2:11-15

11The LORDH3068 will be terrible unto them: for he will famish allH3605 the godsH430 of the earthH776; and menH376 shall worshipH7812 him, everyH3605 one from his placeH4725, evenH3588 allH3605 the islesH339 of the nationsH1471. 12Ye EthiopiansH3569 also, ye shall be slainH2491 by my swordH2719. 13And he will stretchH5186 outH5186 his handH3027 againstH5921 the northH6828, and destroyH6 AssyriaH804; and will makeH7760 NinevehH5210 a desolationH8077, and dryH6723 like the wildernessH4057. 14And herdsH5739 shall lieH7257 downH7257 in the midstH8432 of herH3605, allH3605 the beastsH2416 of the nationsH1471: bothH1571 the pelicanH6893 and the porcupine shall lodge in the chapiters thereof: their voiceH6963 shall singH7891 in the windowsH2474; desolation shall be in the thresholdsH5592; for he hath laidH6168 bareH6168 the cedarH731 workH731. 15This is the joyous cityH5892 that dweltH3427 carelessly, that saidH559 in herH3605 heartH3824, I am, and there is noneH3605 elseH5750 besideH5921 meH5921: howH349 is she becomeH1961 a desolationH8047, a placeH1961 for beastsH2416 to lieH1961 downH3427 in! everyH3605 one that passeth by herH3605 shall hissH8319, and wagH5128 his handH3027.
