¹⁸ Your shepherds ^(A)are asleep,
    O king of Assyria;
    ^(B)your nobles slumber.
Your people ^(C)are scattered on the mountains
    with none to gather them.
¹⁹ There is no easing your hurt;
    ^(D)your wound is grievous.
All who hear the news about you
    ^(E)clap their hands over you.
For ^(F)upon whom has not come
    your unceasing evil?
