⁷ Therefore, look!
    I’m bringing foreigners in your direction,
        the most terrifying of nations!
They will direct their violence^[a]
    against the grandeur
        that you’ve created by your wisdom.
⁸ They’ll send you down to the Pit,^[b]
    and you’ll die defiled in the depths of the sea.
⁹ Is that when you’ll say, ‘I’m God’
    to the face of those who will be killing you?
After all, you’re a man,
    and have never been a god,
especially when you’re under the control^[c] of those
    who will defile you!
