Ezekiel 25 Ezekiel 27

Ezekiel 26:16-18 Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSVCE)

¹⁶Then all the princes of the sea will step down from their thrones, and remove their robes, and strip off their embroidered garments; they will clothe themselves with trembling; they will sit upon the ground and tremble every moment, and be appalled at you. ¹⁷And they will raise a lamentation over you, and say to you,

‘How you have vanished^[a] from the seas,
    O city renowned,
that was mighty on the sea,
    you and your inhabitants,
who imposed your terror
    on all the mainland!^[b]
¹⁸Now the isles tremble
    on the day of your fall;
yea, the isles that are in the sea
    are dismayed at your passing.’
