Zephaniah 2:15 in Context — Zephaniah 2
13 E ele estenderá sua mão contra o norte, e destruirá a Assíria, e tornará Nínive em desolação e em secura como deserto.
14 E no meio dela os rebanhos de gado se deitarão, todas os animais das nações; também o corvo a coruja passarão a noite em seus pilares; sua voz se ouvirá nas janelas; assolação será nos umbrais, porque sua estrutura de cedro estará descoberta.
15 Esta é a cidade alegre que habita segura, que diz em seu coração: Nenhuma outra há como eu sou. Como ela se tornará em desolação, [em] repouso de animais! Qualquer um que passar perto dela assoviará [e] sacudirá sua mão.
