And consider you, saying:
‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who shook kingdoms,
And destroyed its cities,
Who did not open the house of his prisoners?’
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.
Because you have destroyed your land
And slain your people.
aThe brood of evildoers shall never be named.
aBecause of the iniquity of their fathers,
Lest they rise up and possess the land,
And fill the face of the world with cities.”
