11 And the traders of earth shall weep and wail over her; for now there is none to buy their freights,
12 freights of gold, silver, jewels, pearls, fine linen, purples, silk, scarlet stuff, all sorts of citron wood and ivory wares, all articles of costly wood, of bronze, of iron and of marble,
13 with cinnamon, balsam, spices, myrrh, frankincense, wines, olive-oil, fine flour and wheat, with cattle, sheep, horses, carriages, slaves, and the souls of men.
14 [Relocated to between vss 22 & 23] Vanished the ripe fruit of thy soul's desire! Perished thy luxury and splendour! Never again to be seen.
15 The traders in these wares, who made rich profits from her, will stand far off for fear of her torture, weeping and wailing:
16 'Woe and alas, for the great city, robed in linen, in purple and scarlet, her ornaments of gold, of jewels and pearl!
17 And all this splendour gone in one brief hour!' And all shipmasters and sea-faring folk, sailors and all whose business lies upon the sea, stood far off
18 as they watched the smoke of her burning, crying, 'What city was like the great City?'
