17 You thought you were so handsome
    that it made your heart proud.
You thought you were so glorious
    that it spoiled your wisdom.
So I threw you down to the earth.

18 Your many sins and dishonest trade
    made your holy places impure.
So I made you go up in flames.

You have come to a horrible end.
    And you will be gone forever.” ’ ”
