14 Flocks and herds will lie down in the middle of it, as well as every kind of wild animal. Owls will sleep in the tops of its support pillars; they will hoot through the windows. Rubble will cover the thresholds; even the cedar work will be exposed to the elements. 15 This is how the once-proud city will end up--the city that was so secure. She thought to herself, |I am unique! No one can compare to me!| What a heap of ruins she has become, a place where wild animals live! Everyone who passes by her taunts her and shakes his fist.
