Ezekiel

Ezekiel 27:27–29

²⁷Your wealth, wares, and merchandise,

your sailors, captains, and shipwrights,

your merchants and all the warriors within you,

with all the other people on board,

will sink into the heart of the sea

on the day of your downfall.

²⁸The countryside will shake

when your sailors cry out.

²⁹All who handle the oars

will abandon their ships.

The sailors and all the captains of the sea

will stand on the shore.
