    the pride and glory of the Babylonians,
will be overthrown by God
    like Sodom and Gomorrah.

    or lived in through all generations;
there no nomads will pitch their tents,
    there no shepherds will rest their flocks.
21 But desert creatures will lie there,
    jackals will fill her houses;
there the owls will dwell,

    jackals her luxurious palaces.
Her time is at hand,
    and her days will not be prolonged.
