Your walls will tremble at the noise of the warhorses, wagons and chariots(G) when he enters your gates as men enter a city whose walls have been broken through. 11 The hooves(H) of his horses will trample all your streets; he will kill your people with the sword, and your strong pillars(I) will fall to the ground.(J) 12 They will plunder your wealth and loot your merchandise; they will break down your walls and demolish your fine houses and throw your stones, timber and rubble into the sea.(K) 13 I will put an end(L) to your noisy songs,(M) and the music of your harps(N) will be heard no more.(O) 14 I will make you a bare rock, and you will become a place to spread fishnets.

Clothed(U) with terror, they will sit on the ground,(V) trembling(W) every moment, appalled(X) at you. 17 Then they will take up a lament(Y) concerning you and say to you:
“‘How you are destroyed, city of renown,
peopled by men of the sea!
You were a power on the seas,

you put your terror
on all who lived there.(Z)

on the day of your fall;
the islands in the sea
are terrified at your collapse.’(AB)

I will make you dwell in the earth below, as in ancient ruins, with those who go down to the pit, and you will not return or take your place[b] in the land of the living.(AF) 21 I will bring you to a horrible end and you will be no more.(AG) You will be sought, but you will never again be found, declares the Sovereign Lord.”(AH)
