Isaiah 34:11 in Context — Isaiah 34

9 E seus ribeiros se tornarão em piche, e seu solo em enxofre; e sua terra em piche ardente.

10 Nem de noite, nem de dia se apagará, para sempre sua fumaça subirá; de geração em geração será assolada; para todo o sempre ninguém passará por ela.

11 Mas o pelicano e a coruja tomarão posse dela, a ave selvagem e o corvo nela habitarão; pois[o SENHOR] estenderá sobre ela o cordel da assolação e o prumo da ruína.

12 Chamarão ao seus nobres ao reino, porém nenhum haverá ali; e todos os seus príncipes se tornarão coisa nenhuma.

13 E em seus palácios crescerão espinhos; urtigas e cardos em suas fortalezas; e será habitação de chacais [e] habitação de avestruzes.
