“‘How you are destroyed, city of renown,
    peopled by men of the sea!
You were a power on the seas,
    you and your citizens;
you put your terror
    on all who lived there.^(B)
18 Now the coastlands tremble^(C)
    on the day of your fall;
the islands in the sea
    are terrified at your collapse.’^(D)

¹⁰ I will cause many peoples to be appalled at you,
    and their kings will shudder with horror because of you
    when I brandish my sword^(A) before them.
On the day^(B) of your downfall
    each of them will tremble
    every moment for his life.^(C)
