The mother of seven will grow faint(A)
    and breathe her last.(B)
Her sun will set while it is still day;
    she will be disgraced(C) and humiliated.
I will put the survivors to the sword(D)
    before their enemies,”(E)
declares the Lord.

She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the Lord.

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.(A)
All the shining lights in the heavens
    I will darken(B) over you;
    I will bring darkness over your land,(C)
declares the Sovereign Lord.
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(D) before them.
On the day(E) of your downfall
    each of them will tremble
    every moment for his life.(F)

All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over thee, and set darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord God.

I will also vex the hearts of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou hast not known.

10 Yea, I will make many people amazed at thee, and their kings shall be horribly afraid for thee, when I shall brandish my sword before them; and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in the day of thy fall.
