Ezekiel 26:19-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
19 For thus says the Lord God: When I make you a city laid waste, like cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep over you and the great waters cover you, 20 then I will thrust you down with those who descend into the Pit, to the people of long ago, and I will make you live in the world below, among primeval ruins, with those who go down to the Pit, so that you will not be inhabited or have a place[a] in the land of the living.(A) 21 I will bring you to a dreadful end, and you shall be no more; though sought for, you will never be found again, says the Lord God.(B)

Lexham English Bible
19 For thus says the Lord Yahweh: “When I make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when bringing up over you the deep, the great surging waters[a] will cover you. 20 And I will bring you down with those who are going down to the grave,[b] an ancient people,[c] and I will cause you to dwell in the world[d] of the depths, in the ruins from of old with those who are going down to the grave,[e] so that you will not be inhabited and have a place[f] in the land of the living. 21 Sudden terrors I will bring on you, and you shall no longer exist; and you will be sought, and you will not be found again forever,”[g] declares[h] the Lord Yahweh.
