Ezekiel 26:19-21
New American Standard Bible
19 For this is what the Lord God says: “When I make you a desolate city, like the cities which are not inhabited, when I (A)bring up the deep over you and the great waters cover you, 20 then I will bring you down with those who (B)go down to the pit, to the people of old, and I will make you remain in the (C)lower parts of the earth, like the ancient ruins, with those who go down to the pit, so that you will not [a]be inhabited; but I will put (D)glory in the land of the living. 21 I will [b]cause you (E)sudden terrors and you will no longer exist; though you will be sought, (F)you will never be found again,” declares the Lord God.

Ezekiel 26:19-21
Common English Bible
19 The Lord God proclaims: When I turn you into ruins like uninhabitable cities, when the deep sea washes over you and the raging seas cover you, 20 I will lead you down into the pit, to the everlasting people. I will install you in the world below,[a] in the everlasting ruins, with those who go down to the pit. And so you will neither rule nor radiate splendor in the land of the living. 21 I will terrify you, and you will disappear. You will be sought but never found again. This is what the Lord God says.

I will make you dwell in the earth below, as in ancient ruins, with those who go down to the pit, and you will not return or take your place[a] in the land of the living.(D) 21 I will bring you to a horrible end and you will be no more.(E) You will be sought, but you will never again be found, declares the Sovereign Lord.”(F)
