⁹ And I have vexed the heart of many peoples, In My bringing in thy destruction among nations, Unto lands that thou hast not known.

¹⁰ from afar having stood because of the fear of her torment, saying, Wo, wo, the great city! Babylon, the strong city! because in one hour did come thy judgment.

¹¹ `And the merchants of the earth shall weep and sorrow over her, because their lading no one doth buy any more;

¹² lading of gold, and silver, and precious stone, and pearl, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyne wood, and every vessel of ivory, and every vessel of most precious wood, and brass, and iron, and marble,

¹³ and cinnamon, and odours, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies and souls of men.

¹⁴ `And the fruits of the desire of thy soul did go away from thee, and all things -- the dainty and the bright -- did go away from thee, and no more at all mayest thou find them.

¹⁵ The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, far off shall stand because of the fear of her torment, weeping, and sorrowing,

¹⁵ `For thus said Jehovah God of Israel unto me, Take the wine cup of this fury out of My hand, and thou hast caused all the nations to drink it unto whom I am sending thee;

¹⁶ And they have drunk, and shaken themselves and shewn themselves foolish, because of the sword that I am sending among them.

¹⁷ `And I take the cup out of the hand of Jehovah, and cause all the nations to drink unto whom Jehovah sent me:

¹⁸ Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, And its kings, its heads, To give them to waste, to astonishment, To hissing, and to reviling, as `at' this day.

¹⁹ Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, And his heads, and all his people,

²⁰ And all the mixed people, And all the kings of the land of Uz, And all the kings of the land of the Philistines, And Ashkelon, and Gazzah, and Ekron, And the remnant of Ashdod,

²¹ Edom, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon,

²² And all the kings of Tyre, And all the kings of Zidon, And the kings of the isle that `is' beyond the sea,

²³ Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, And all cutting the corners `of the beard',

²⁴ And all the kings of Arabia, And all the kings of the mixed people, Who are dwelling in the wilderness,

²⁵ And all the kings of Zimri, And all the kings of Elam, And all the kings of Media,

¹² And I have made the land of Egypt a desolation, In the midst of desolate lands, And its cities, in the midst of waste cities, Are a desolation forty years, And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have dispersed them through lands.

²³ And scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands,

²⁶ And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah!'

¹⁸ and the nations were angry, and Thine anger did come, and the time of the dead, to be judged, and to give the reward to Thy servants, to the prophets, and to the saints, and to those fearing Thy name, to the small and to the great, and to destroy those who are destroying the land.'
