16     What do you have here—and whom do you have here—
    that you have hewed out a tomb for yourself,
        you who cuts his grave on high and carves himself a home in the cliff?
17 The Lord is about to hurl you down, mighty man!

    He is surely going to cover you with darkness;
18     he will indeed unroll your head wrapping,
        rolling it like a ball into the open country.
        There you will die, with your glorious chariots,
        you disgrace to the house of your master!

16 What are you doing here and who gave you permission
    to cut out a grave(A) for yourself(B) here,

    and chiseling your resting place in the rock?

17 “Beware, the Lord is about to take firm hold of you
    and hurl(C) you away, you mighty man.
18 He will roll you up tightly like a ball
    and throw(D) you into a large country.
There you will die
    and there the chariots(E) you were so proud of
    will become a disgrace to your master’s house.
