New International Version (NIV)

22Listen! The report is coming—

a great commotion from the land of the north!

It will make the towns of Judah desolate,

a haunt of jackals.

22The sound of a report! Behold, it is coming—

A great roar from the land of the north—

To make the cities of Judah

A desolation, a haunt of jackals.

22The sound of a report! Behold, it comes—

A great commotion out of the land of the north—

To make the cities of Judah

A desolation, a haunt of jackals.

22The sound of a report! Behold, [the invader] comes—

A great commotion from the country of the north (Babylonia)—

To make the cities of Judah

A desolation, a haunt and dwelling place of jackals.

22Listen! The sound of a report is coming —

a great commotion from the land to the north.

It will make the cities of Judah a desolation,

a haunt for jackals.

22Listen! A message is coming!

I hear the sound of a great army

marching down from the north!

It will turn Judah’s towns into a desert.

They will become a home for wild dogs.
