Nettles

Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they were gathered together.   Job 30:7 

And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.   Proverbs 24:31 

And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, and a court for owls.   Isaiah 34:13 

For, lo, they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns shall be in their tabernacles.   Hosea 9:6 

Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall possess them.   Zephaniah 2:9
