16 Those who see you will gaze at you,
They will carefully consider you, saying,
‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who caused kingdoms to quake,
17 Who made the world like a awilderness
And pulled down its cities,
Who bdid not allow his prisoners to go home?’
18 All the kings of the nations lie in glory,
Each in his own place.
19 But you have been acast out of your grave
Like an abhorred branch,
Clothed with those killed who are pierced with a sword,
Who go down to the stones of the bpit
Like a ctrampled corpse.
20 You will not be united with them in burial,
Because you have ruined your country,
You have killed your people.
May the aseed of evildoers not be called upon forever.
