¹¹And ^(A)the merchants of the earth weep and mourn for her, since no one buys their cargo anymore, ¹²cargo of gold, silver, jewels, pearls, fine linen, purple cloth, silk, scarlet cloth, all kinds of scented wood, all kinds of articles of ivory, all kinds of articles of costly wood, bronze, iron and marble, ¹³cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, oil, fine flour, wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and slaves, that is, human souls.^[a]

    has gone from you,
and all your delicacies and your splendors
    are lost to you,
    never to be found again!”

¹⁵^(B)The merchants of these wares, who gained wealth from her, ^(C)will stand far off, in fear of her torment, weeping and mourning aloud,

¹⁶“Alas, alas, for the great city
    ^(D)that was clothed in fine linen,
        in purple and scarlet,
    adorned with gold,
        with jewels, and with pearls!
¹⁷For ^(E)in a single hour all this wealth ^(F)has been laid waste.”

And ^(G)all shipmasters and seafaring men, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood far off ¹⁸and ^(H)cried out ^(I)as they saw the smoke of her burning,

^(J)“What city was like the great city?”

¹⁹And they threw ^(K)dust on their heads as they wept and mourned, crying out,

“Alas, alas, for the great city
^(L)where all who had ships at sea
grew rich by her wealth!
For ^(M)in a single hour she has been laid waste.

²⁵^(A)The ships of ^(B)Tarshish traveled for you with your merchandise. So you were filled and heavily laden ^(C)in the heart of the seas.

²⁶“Your rowers have brought you out
    into the high seas.
^(D)The east wind has wrecked you
    in the heart of the seas.
²⁷Your riches, your wares, your merchandise,
    your mariners and ^(E)your pilots,
^(F)your caulkers, your dealers in merchandise,

²⁸At the sound of the cry of your pilots
    ^(H)the countryside shakes,
²⁹and down from their ships
    ^(I)come all who handle the oar.
The mariners and all the pilots of the sea
    stand on the land
³⁰^(J)and shout aloud over you
    and cry out bitterly.
^(K)They cast dust on their heads
    ^(L)and wallow in ashes;
