Yahweh will punish Assyria
13 Yahweh will punish [IDM] and destroy Assyria,
that land northeast of us.
He will cause its capital Nineveh to become ruined and deserted,
a place that will be as dry as the desert.
14 Flocks of sheep and herds of cattle and many kinds of wild animals will lie down there.
Owls and crows will sit on the columns/pillars of the destroyed buildings,
and they will ◄hoot/cry out► through the windows.
There will be rubble in the doorways,
and the valuable cedar boards will be taken from the ruined houses.
15 The people of Nineveh were previously happy and proud,
thinking that they were very safe.
They were always saying,
“Our city is the greatest city;
there is no city as great as ours!”
But now it will become a ruins,
a place where wild animals make their dens.
And everyone who passes by there will hiss and scorn/ridicule that city,
and shake their fists to show that they detest that city very much.
