21
Arabia and all the princes of Kedar, merchants of thy strength in lambs and rams and he goats: in these
they were thy merchants.
22
The merchants of Sheba and Raamah; they
were thy merchants: they traded in thy fairs with the chief of all spices and with all precious stones and gold.
23
Haran and Canneh and Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur,
and Chilmad
were in thy market.
24
These, thy merchants, negotiated with thee in all sorts
of things: in blue robes and broidered work and in chests of rich apparel, bound with cords and made of cedar, among thy merchandise.
25
The ships of Tarshish, thy squadrons, went forth on thy behalf: and thou wast full, and wast multiplied greatly in the midst of the seas.
26
In many waters they overcame thy rowers; the east wind has broken thee in the midst of the seas.
27
Thy riches, and thy markets, thy business, thy rowers, and thy pilots, those that repair thy breaches, and the agents of thy business, and all thy men of war, that
are in thee, with all thy company which
is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the midst of the seas in the day of thy ruin.
28
The suburbs shall shake at the sound of the cry of thy pilots.
29
And all that handle the oar, the rowers,
and all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships; they shall stand upon the land
30
and shall cause their voice to be heard upon thee and shall cry bitterly and shall cast up dust upon their heads; they shall wallow themselves in the ashes.
31
And they shall pull out their hair for thee and gird themselves with sackcloth, and they shall weep for thee with bitterness of soul
and bitter wailings.
