34In the time that thou wast broken by the seas in the depths of the waters, thy merchandise and all thy company did fall in the midst of thee.

35All the inhabitants of the isles are astonished at thee, and their kings are horribly afraid; they are troubled in their countenance.

36The merchants among the peoples hiss at thee; thou art become

a terror, and thou shalt nevermore have any being.
