Zephaniah 2:13-15 He will stretch out His hand against the north, and He will destroy Assyria, and He will make Nineveh a desolation, arid as a wilderness."

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ He will stretch out His hand against the north, and He will destroy Assyria, and He will make Nineveh a desolation, arid as a wilderness." ¹⁴ And droves shall recline in its midst, all the field life. Moreover, the pelican, and the hedgehog shall lodge in its shelters. A voice shall sing in the window, a raven in the threshold, for the cedar is razed." ¹⁵ This is the joyous city dwelling trustingly, saying in her heart, I, and still only I! How she has become a desolation, a reclining place for the animal! Every one passing over her shall hiss and shall wag his hand."
