Ezekiel 26:16-21
New American Standard Bible 1995
16 Then all the princes of the sea will (A)go down from their thrones, remove their robes and strip off their embroidered garments. They will (B)clothe themselves with [a]trembling; they will sit on the ground, (C)tremble every moment and be appalled at you. 17 They will take up a (D)lamentation over you and say to you,
‘(E)How you have perished, O inhabited one,
From the seas, O renowned city,
Which was (F)mighty on the sea,
She and her inhabitants,
Who [b]imposed [c]her terror
On all her inhabitants!
18 ‘Now the (G)coastlands will tremble
On the day of your fall;
Yes, the coastlands which are by the sea
Will be terrified at your (H)passing.’”
19 For thus says the Lord God, “When I make you a desolate city, like the cities which are not inhabited, when I (I)bring up the deep over you and the great waters cover you, 20 then I will bring you down with those who (J)go down to the pit, to the people of old, and I will make you dwell in the (K)lower parts of the earth, like the ancient waste places, with those who go down to the pit, so that you will not [d]be inhabited; but I will set (L)glory in the land of the living. 21 I will [e]bring (M)terrors on you and you will be no more; though you will be sought, (N)you will never be found again,” declares the Lord God.
