17 Your heart had grown proud
    because of your beauty,
and for the sake of your splendor,
    you corrupted your wisdom.
I flung you to the earth,
    so great was your guilt,
and I made you a spectacle to behold
    in the sight of kings.
18 Because of the immense number of your crimes
    and your dishonesty in business,
    you profaned our sanctuaries.
Therefore, I have brought forth fire from your midst,
    and I allowed it to devour you.
I have reduced you to ashes on the ground
    for everyone to behold.
19 All of the nations who knew you
    were aghast at your fate.
You have come to a hideous end,
    and you will be no more.

    are appalled(F) at you;
you have come to a horrible end
