13Thorns will overrun her citadels,

nettles and brambles her strongholds.

She will become a haunt for jackals,

a home for owls.

13Thorns will come up in its fortified towers,

Weeds and thistles in its fortified cities;

It will also be a haunt of jackals

And a habitat of ostriches.

And an abode of ostriches.

Nettles and brambles in its fortified cities;

It will be a haunt for jackals,

An abode for ostriches.

her fortresses with thistles and briers.

She will become a haunt for jackals,34:13 Or serpents or dragons

Bushes and weeds will cover its safest places.

It will become a home for wild dogs.

It will become a place where owls live.
