Zephaniah 2:11-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
11
The
Lord
will be terrifying to them, for He will starve all the gods of the earth; and all the coastlands of the nations will bow down to Him, everyone from his
own
place.
12
'You also, Ethiopians, will be slain by My sword.'
13
And He will stretch out His hand against the north
And eliminate Assyria,
And He will make Nineveh a desolation,
Parched like the wilderness.
14
Flocks will lie down in her midst,
All animals that range in herds;
Both the pelican and the hedgehog
Will spend their nights in the tops of her pillars;
Birds will sing in the window,
Devastation
will be
on the threshold;
For He has uncovered the cedar work.
King James Version
Chapter 2
11
The
Lord
will be terrible unto them: for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and men shall worship him, every one from his place, even all the isles of the heathen.
12
Ye Ethiopians also, ye shall be slain by my sword.
13
And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like a wilderness.
14
And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; their voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 2
11
The
Lord
will be terrifying to them
when he starves all the gods of the earth.
Then all the distant coasts and islands of the nations
will bow in worship to him,
each in its own place.
12
You Cushites will also be slain by my sword.
13
He will also stretch out his hand against the north
and destroy Assyria;
he will make Nineveh a desolate ruin,
dry as the desert.
14
Herds will lie down in the middle of it,
every kind of wild animal.
Both eagle owls and herons
will roost in the capitals of its pillars.
Their calls will sound from the window,
but devastation will be on the threshold,
for he will expose the cedar work.
New Living Translation
Chapter 2
11
The
Lord
will terrify them
as he destroys all the gods in the land.
Then nations around the world will worship the
Lord
,
each in their own land.
12
'You Ethiopians will also be slaughtered
by my sword,' says the
Lord
.
13
And the
Lord
will strike the lands of the north with his fist,
destroying the land of Assyria.
He will make its great capital, Nineveh, a desolate wasteland,
parched like a desert.
14
The proud city will become a pasture for flocks and herds,
and all sorts of wild animals will settle there.
The desert owl and screech owl will roost on its ruined columns,
their calls echoing through the gaping windows.
Rubble will block all the doorways,
and the cedar paneling will be exposed to the weather.
English Standard Version
Chapter 2
11
The
Lord
will be awesome against them;
for he will famish all the gods of the earth,
and to him shall bow down,
each in its place,
all the lands of the nations.
12
You also, O Cushites,
shall be slain by my sword.
13
And he will stretch out his hand against the north
and destroy Assyria,
and he will make Nineveh a desolation,
a dry waste like the desert.
14
Herds shall lie down in her midst,
all kinds of beasts;
even the owl and the hedgehog
shall lodge in her capitals;
a voice shall hoot in the window;
devastation will be on the threshold;
for her cedar work will be laid bare.
New International Version
Chapter 2
11
The
Lord
will be awesome to them
when he destroys all the gods of the earth.
Distant nations will bow down to him,
all of them in their own lands.
12
"You Cushites, too,
will be slain by my sword."
13
He will stretch out his hand against the north
and destroy Assyria,
leaving Nineveh utterly desolate
and dry as the desert.
14
Flocks and herds will lie down there,
creatures of every kind.
The desert owl and the screech owl
will roost on her columns.
Their hooting will echo through the windows,
rubble will fill the doorways,
the beams of cedar will be exposed.
New King James Version
Chapter 2
11
The
Lord
will be
awesome to them,
For He will reduce to nothing all the gods of the earth;
People
shall worship Him,
Each one from his place,
Indeed all the shores of the nations.
12
“You Ethiopians also,
You shall be slain by My sword.”
13
And He will stretch out His hand against the north,
Destroy Assyria,
And make Nineveh a desolation,
As dry as the wilderness.
14
The herds shall lie down in her midst,
Every beast of the nation.
Both the pelican and the bittern
Shall lodge on the capitals
of
her
pillars;
Their voice shall sing in the windows;
Desolation
shall be
at the threshold;
For He will lay bare the cedar work.
