myour caulkers, your dealers in merchandise,
and all your men of war who are in you,
with all your crew
that is in your midst,
sink into the heart of the seas

29and down from their ships
pcome all who handle the oar.

and cry out bitterly.
rThey cast dust on their heads

has gone from you,
and all your delicacies and your splendors

16 “Alas, alas, for the great city
xthat was clothed in fine linen,
in purple and scarlet,
adorned with gold,
with jewels, and with pearls!
17For yin a single hour all this wealth zhas been laid waste.”

ad“What city was like the great city?”
19And they threw aedust on their heads as they wept and mourned, crying out,
“Alas, alas, for the great city
afwhere all who had ships at sea
grew rich by her wealth!
For agin a single hour she has been laid waste.
