“Just like this, the great city Babylon
    will be thrown down with violence

    will never be heard in you again.

    will ever be found in you again.
The sound of the mill
    will never be heard in you again.
23 The light of a lamp

The happy voices of brides and grooms
    will never be heard in you again.
For your merchants were the greatest in the world,
    and you deceived the nations with your sorceries.
