“‘You are like a lion^(B) among the nations;
    you are like a monster^(C) in the seas^(D)
thrashing about in your streams,
    churning the water with your feet
    and muddying the streams.^(E)

“‘With a great throng of people
    I will cast my net over you,
    and they will haul you up in my net.^(F)
4 I will throw you on the land
    and hurl you on the open field.
I will let all the birds of the sky settle on you
    and all the animals of the wild gorge themselves on you.^(G)
5 I will spread your flesh on the mountains
    and fill the valleys^(H) with your remains.
⁶ I will drench the land with your flowing blood^(I)
    all the way to the mountains,
    and the ravines will be filled with your flesh.^(J)
7 When I snuff you out, I will cover the heavens
    and darken their stars;
I will cover the sun with a cloud,
    and the moon will not give its light.^(K)
8 All the shining lights in the heavens
    I will darken^(L) over you;
    I will bring darkness over your land,^(M)
declares the Sovereign Lord.
⁹ I will trouble the hearts of many peoples
    when I bring about your destruction among the nations,
    among^[a] lands you have not known.
¹⁰ I will cause many peoples to be appalled at you,
    and their kings will shudder with horror because of you
    when I brandish my sword^(N) before them.
On the day^(O) of your downfall
    each of them will tremble
    every moment for his life.^(P)
