19.	'And Babel, the splendour of reigns, the comeliness of the Chaldeans' pride, shall be as when Elohim overthrew Sedom and Amorah.
20.	'She shall never be inhabited, nor be settled from generation to generation; nor shall the Arabian pitch tents there, nor shepherds rest their flocks there.
21.	'But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there, and their houses shall be filled with owls. And ostriches shall dwell there, and wild goats frolic there.
22.	'And hyenas shall cry in their citadels, and jackals in their pleasant palaces. And her time is near to come, and her days are not drawn out.'
