All because of the (A)many harlotries of the harlot,
The charming one, the (B)mistress of sorceries,
Who (C)sells nations by her harlotries
And families by her sorceries.
“Behold, (D)I am against you,” declares Yahweh of hosts;
“And I will (E)uncover your skirts over your face
And (F)show to the nations your nakedness
And to the kingdoms your disgrace.
I will (G)throw detestable filth on you
And (H)display you as a wicked fool
And set you up as a (I)spectacle.
And it will be that all who see you
Will flee from you and say,
‘Nineveh is devastated!
(J)Who will console her?’
Where will I seek comforters for you?”

who enslaves[a] nations through her debaucheries

    and will lift up your skirts over your face,
and I will let nations look on your nakedness
    and kingdoms on your shame.(B)
I will throw filth at you
    and treat you with contempt
    and make you a spectacle.(C)
Then all who see you will shrink from you and say,
“Nineveh is devastated; who will bemoan her?”
    Where shall I seek comforters for you?(D)
