19 But you are cast out of your tomb
as a discarded branch,
    garment of the slain,
    pierced with a sword,
    dumped into a stony pit,
    a corpse trodden underfoot.
20 You will not join with them in burial,
because you ruined your land,
    you slaughtered your own people.
The offspring of evildoers will never be named.
21 Prepare slaughter for his children
for the iniquity of their fathers,
so they would not rise up and possess the land,
or fill the face of the earth with cities.

19 But you are cast out(A) of your tomb
    like a rejected branch;
you are covered with the slain,(B)
    with those pierced by the sword,(C)
    those who descend to the stones of the pit.(D)
Like a corpse trampled underfoot,
20     you will not join them in burial,(E)
for you have destroyed your land
    and killed your people.

Let the offspring(F) of the wicked(G)
    never be mentioned(H) again.
21 Prepare a place to slaughter his children(I)
    for the sins of their ancestors;(J)
they are not to rise to inherit the land
    and cover the earth with their cities.
