19 You will be reviled and disgraced—your tomb desecrated,
    your corpse thrown aside like a worthless branch.
Those slain in battle, pierced by swords, will cover you;
    you’ll go down to the pit like a corpse left on the battlefield.
20 Because you wrecked your own land and killed your own people,
    your corpse will not share in the honor of a proper burial.
May the offspring of such evil never be mentioned again;
    don’t speak their names or hear their tales.
21 Let them be obliterated because of their fathers’ wicked deeds
    so that they never have a chance to follow in their steps,
Terrorizing and possessing the earth,
    filling up the world with their cities!
Then people can live in normalcy and peace.
