and there the owl will dwell.

CSBChristian Standard Bible
Therefore, desert creatures will live with hyenas,
and ostriches will also live in her.
It will never again be inhabited
or lived in through all generations.
Just as God demolished Sodom and Gomorrah
and their neighboring towns —
this is the Lord’s declaration—
so no one will live there;
no human being will stay in it even temporarily
as a temporary resident.

“Soon Babylon will be inhabited by desert animals and hyenas.
It will be a home for owls.
Never again will people live there;
it will lie desolate forever.
I will destroy it as I destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah
and their neighboring towns,” says the Lord.
“No one will live there;
no one will inhabit it.

KJV 1900King James Version
Therefore the wild beasts of the desert
With the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there,
And the owls shall dwell therein:
And it shall be no more inhabited for ever;
Neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah
And the neighbour cities thereof, saith the Lord;
So shall no man abide there,
Neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
