The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
ut fieret terra eorum in desolationem, et in sibilum sempiternum : omnis qui præterierit per eam obstupescet, et movebit caput suum.
Septuagint (Swete)
τοῦ τάξαι τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν εἰς ἀφανισμὸν καὶ σύριγμα αἰώνιον· πάντες οἱ διαπορευόμενοι αὐτῆς ἐκστήσονται καὶ κινήσουσιν τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν.
Hebrew (WLC)
לָשׂ֥וּם אַרְצָ֛ם לְשַׁמָּ֖ה שרוקת עוֹלָ֑ם כֹּ֚ל עוֹבֵ֣ר עָלֶ֔יהָ יִשֹּׁ֖ם וְיָנִ֥יד בְּרֹאשֽׁוֹ
