Ah! City of bloodshed, utterly deceitful , full of ***** -- no end to the plunder! The crack of whip and rumble of wheel, galloping horse and bounding chariot! Horsemen charging , flashing sword and glittering spear, piles of dead, heaps of corpses, dead bodies without end --- they stumble over the bodies! Because of the countless debaucheries of the *******, gracefully alluring , mistress of sorcery, who enslaves ! nations through her debaucheries, and peoples through her sorcery, I am against you,says the Lord of hosts, and will lift up your skirts over your face; and I will let nations look on your nakedness. and kingdoms on your shame. I will throw filth at you and treat you with contempt, and make you a spectacle. Then all who see you will shrink from you and say, "Nineveh is devastated, who will bemoan her?" Where shall I seek comforters for you?
