Yehezkiel 27:27-29

27:27 Your wealth, products, and merchandise, your sailors and captains,

your ship’s carpenters, ¹  your merchants,

and all your fighting men within you,

along with all your crew who are in you,

will fall into the heart of the seas on the day of your downfall.

27:28 At the sound of your captains’ cry the waves will surge; ² 

27:29 They will descend from their ships – all who handle the oar,

the sailors and all the sea captains – they will stand on the land.
