Ezekiel 26:19-21
Christian Standard Bible
19 For this is what the Lord God says: “When I make you a ruined city like other deserted cities, when I raise up the deep against you so that the mighty waters cover you, 20 then I will bring you down to be with those who descend to the Pit,(A) to the people of antiquity. I will make you dwell in the underworld[a] like[b] the ancient ruins, with those who descend to the Pit, so that you will no longer be inhabited or display your splendor[c] in the land of the living.(B) 21 I will make you an object of horror, and you will no longer exist.(C) You will be sought but will never be found again.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.

Ezekiel 26:19-21
International Standard Version
19 “This is what the Lord God says: ‘When I turn your city into a ghost town, when I flood you with deep water that covers you completely, 20 I’ll make sure that you go straight to the Pit,[a] into the lowest part of the earth, where you’ll be with people who lived in ancient times. You’ll keep company there with the dead, who have gone into the Pit.[b] As a result, your city[c] won’t be inhabited. Meanwhile, I will display my glory in the land of the living. 21 I’m going to send terrifying calamity in your direction, and you won’t exist any longer. You might be sought after, but you’ll never be found again,’ declares the Lord God.”
