company
in

shall
fall
.
Now
you
are
shattered
by the seas in the depths of the waters ;
your
merchandise and the people
among
you
have
gone
down
with
you
.
All the inhabitants
of the isles
shall
be
astonished
at
thee,
and
their kings shall
be
sore
afraid,
they
shall
be
troubled
in
their countenance
.
All the people
of the coastlands
are
appalled
over
you.
Their kings shudder
with
fear;
their faces
are
contorted
.
The
merchants
among the people
shall
hiss at thee
; thou
shalt
be
a terror,
and never
shalt
be any
more.
Those
who
trade
among the nations
hiss at you
; you
have
come
to
a horrible
end
and will
be no
more. ’”
