“So now, hear this, you (A)sensual one,
Who (B)sits securely,
Who says in [a]your heart,
(C)I am, and there is no one besides me.
I will (D)not sit as a widow,
Nor know loss of children.’
But these (E)two things will come on you (F)suddenly in one day:
Loss of children and widowhood.
They will come on you in full measure
In spite of your many (G)sorceries,
In spite of the great might of your spells.
10 You felt (H)secure in your evil and said,
(I)No one sees me,’
Your (J)wisdom and your knowledge [b]have turned you astray;
So you have said in your heart,
(K)I am, and there is no one besides me.’
