Nineveh » Zephaniah » Foretells » Desolation
Yea, he shall stretch out his hand over the north, and destroy Assyria. As for Nineveh, he shall make it desolate, dry and waste. The flocks and all the beasts of the people shall lie in the midst of it, pelicans and storks shall abide in the upper posts of it, fowls shall sing in the windows, and ravens shall sit upon the balks, for the borders of cedar shall be riven down.

Whoso goeth by, mocketh her, and pointeth at her with his finger.
