Isaiah 34:9-15 and its torrents shall be turned into pitch, and its land into sulphur. And its land shall be like pitch burning day and night,

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ and its torrents shall be turned into pitch, and its land into sulphur. And its land shall be like pitch burning day and night, ¹⁰ and which shall not be extinguished: for a long time the smoke of it shall ascend. During its generation it shall be desolate. ¹¹ And for a long period fowls and porcupines, ibises and crows shall dwell therein. And over it shall be stretched a line of devastation; and in it the onocentaurs shall dwell. ¹² The chiefs of it shall be no more; for its kings and its nobles shall be for destruction. ¹³ And in their cities shall spring up brakes; and brambles shall be its fortresses: and they shall be cots for Sirens, and for the ostrich's court. ¹⁴ And demons shall meet onocentaurs; and bellow one to the other. Onocentaurs shall there enjoy repose having found for themselves a place of rest. ¹⁵ There the porcupine hath made its nest; and the land hath safely kept its young. There the deer have assembled and seen each other's face.
