For the palace shall be forsaken; the populous city shall be deserted; the hill and the watch-tower shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;

For the fair houses will have no man living in them; the town which was full of noise will become a waste; the hill and the watchtower will be unpeopled for ever, a joy for the asses of the woods, a place of food for the flocks;

Διοτι τα παλατια θελουσιν εγκαταλειφθη· το πληθος της πολεως θελει ερημωθη· τα φρουρια και οι πυργοι θελουσι κατασταθη εως αιωνος σπηλαια, τρυφη αγριων ονων, βοσκη ποιμνιων·

Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
