17. You became too proudbecause of your beauty.You ruined your wisdombecause of your greatness.I threw you down to the ground.Your example taught a lesson to other kings.
18. You dishonored your places of worshipthrough your many sins and dishonest trade.So I set on fire the place where you lived,and the fire burned you up.I turned you into ashes on the groundfor all those watching to see.
19. All the nations who knew youare shocked about you.Your punishment was so terrible,and you are gone forever.’ ”
