Ezekiel 26:16-18
The Message
16-18 “All up and down the coast, the princes will come down from their thrones, take off their royal robes and fancy clothes, and wrap themselves in sheer terror. They’ll sit on the ground, shaken to the core, horrified at you. Then they’ll begin chanting a funeral song over you:
“‘Sunk! Sunk to the bottom of the sea,

But now the islands are shaking
at the sound of your crash,
Ocean islands in tremors
from the impact of your fall.’
Ezekiel 26:16-18
