Zephaniah 2:11-15

11The LORDH3068 will be terribleH3372 to them: for he will famishH7329 all the godsH430 of the earthH776; and men shall worshipH7812 him, every oneH376 from his placeH4725, even all the islesH339 of the heathenH1471.1

12Ye CushitesH3569 also, yeH1992 shall be slainH2491 by my swordH2719. 13And he will stretch outH5186 his handH3027 against the northH6828, and destroyH6 AssyriaH804; and will makeH7760 NinevehH5210 a desolationH8077, and dryH6723 like a wildernessH4057. 14And flocksH5739 shall lie downH7257 in the midstH8432 of her, all the beastsH2416 of the nationsH1471: both the cormorantH6893 and the bitternH7090 shall lodgeH3885 in her upper lintelsH3730; their voiceH6963 shall singH7891 in the windowsH2474; desolationH2721 shall be in the thresholdsH5592: for he shall uncoverH6168 the cedar workH731.234 15This is the rejoicingH5947 cityH5892 that dweltH3427 in securityH983, that saidH559 in her heartH3824, I am, and there is none besidesH657 me: how is she become a desolationH8047, a place for beastsH2416 to lie down inH4769! every one that passeth byH5674 her shall hissH8319, and shakeH5128 his handH3027.
