Isaiah 32:12-14

Revised Standard Version

¹² Beat upon your breasts for the pleasant fields,
    for the fruitful vine,
¹³ for the soil of my people
    growing up in thorns and briers;
yea, for all the joyous houses
    in the joyful city.
¹⁴ For the palace will be forsaken,
    the populous city deserted;
the hill and the watchtower
    will become dens for ever,
a joy of wild asses,
    a pasture of flocks;
