By the multitude of thine iniquities, in the unrighteousness of thy commerce, thou have profaned thy sanctuaries. Therefore I have brought forth a fire from the midst of thee. It has devoured thee, and I have turned thee to ashes u All those who know thee among the peoples shall be astonished at thee. Thou have become a horror, and thou shall nevermore have any being.
