Isaiah 32:14

Isaiah 32:14 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

14The fortress will be abandoned,

the noisy city deserted;

citadel and watchtower will become a wasteland forever,

the delight of donkeys, a pasture for flocks,

14For the palace has been neglected, the populated city abandoned.

Hill and watch-tower have become caves forever,

A delight for wild donkeys, a pasture for flocks,

14Because the palace has been abandoned, the populated city forsaken.

Hill and watch-tower have become caves forever,

A delight for wild donkeys, a pasture for flocks;

14For the palace has been abandoned, the populated city deserted;

The hill [of the city] and the watchtower have become caves [for wild animals] forever,

A delight for wild donkeys, a pasture for flocks,

14For the palace will be forsaken,

the busy city abandoned.

The hill and the watchtower will become caves forever —

the delight of wild donkeys

and a pasture for flocks —

14The royal palace will be left empty.

The noisy city will be deserted.

The fort and lookout tower will become

a dry and empty desert forever.

Donkeys will enjoy being there.

Flocks will eat there.
