8Art thou betterH3190 than populousH528H527 NoH4996, that was situateH3427 among the riversH2975, that had the watersH4325 round aboutH5439 it, whose rampartH2426 was the seaH3220, and her wallH2346 was from the seaH3220?1
9EthiopiaH3568 and EgyptH4714 were her strengthH6109, and it was infiniteH7097H369; PutH6316 and LubimH3864 were thy helpersH5833.2
10Yet was she carried awayH1473, she wentH1980 into captivityH7628: her young childrenH5768 also were dashed in piecesH7376 at the topH7218 of all the streetsH2351: and they castH3032 lotsH1486 for her honourable menH3513, and all her great menH1419 were boundH7576 in chainsH2131.
11Thou also shalt be drunkenH7937: thou shalt be hidH5956, thou also shalt seekH1245 strengthH4581 because of the enemyH341.
12All thy strong holdsH4013 shall be like fig treesH8384 with the firstripe figsH1061: if they be shakenH5128, they shall even fallH5307 into the mouthH6310 of the eaterH398.
