The maggot is spread under you,
And worms cover you.’

And consider you, saying:
‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who shook kingdoms,

Who shook kingdoms,

And destroyed its cities,
Who did not open the house of his prisoners?’

Who did not open the house of his prisoners?’
19 But you are cast out of your grave
Like an1 abominable branch,
Like the garment of those who are slain,
1Thrust through with a sword,
Who go down to the stones of the pit,
Like a corpse trodden underfoot.

20 You will not be joined with them in burial,
Because you have destroyed your land
And slain your people.
aThe brood of evildoers shall never be named.

And slain your people.

21 Prepare slaughter for his children
aBecause of the iniquity of their fathers,
Lest they rise up and possess the land,
And fill the face of the world with cities.”
