15‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 GodH3068, “On the dayH3117 when it wentH3381 downH3381 to SheolH7585 I 1causedH56 lamentationsH56; I closedH3680 the 2deepH8415 overH5921 it and heldH4513 backH4513 its riversH5104. And its manyH7227 watersH4325 were stoppedH3607 up, and I made LebanonH3844 3mournH6937 for it, and allH3605 the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 wiltedH5968 awayH5968 on accountH5921 of it. 16I made the nationsH1471 4quakeH7493 at the soundH6963 of its fallH4658 when I made it 5goH3381 downH3381 to SheolH7585 with those who goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953; and allH3605 the 6well-wateredH8354 treesH6086 of EdenH5731, the choicestH4005 and bestH2896 of 7LebanonH3844, were 8comfortedH5162 in the earthH776 beneathH8482. 17They alsoH1571 9wentH3381 downH3381 with it to SheolH7585 to those who were 10slainH2491 by the swordH2719; and those who were its 11strengthH2220 livedH3427 12under its shadeH6738 amongH8432 the nationsH1471.
18“To whichH4310 among the treesH6086 of EdenH5731 are you thusH3602 13equalH1819 in gloryH3519 and greatnessH1433? Yet you will be broughtH3381 downH3381 with the treesH6086 of EdenH5731 to the earthH776 beneathH8482; you will lieH7901 in the midstH8432 of the 14uncircumcisedH6189, with those who were slainH2491 by the swordH2719. 15So is PharaohH6547 and allH3605 his hordesH1995!”’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.”
