22 They were your agents in Sheba and Raamah. For your wares they exchanged the finest spices, every kind of precious stone, and gold.
23 Haran, Canneh, and Eden were your agents, and also Assyria and Chilmad.
24 They procured fine finished goods for you, garments of purple and brocade, and plush carpets rolled up and securely tied with ropes, among your acquisitions.
25 The ships of Tarshish carried your goods.You were filled to capacity and heavily laden in the middle of the sea.
26 Your oarsmen brought you out onto the high seas;an east wind sank you into the sea’s depths.
27 Your goods, your wares, your wealth,your sailors, your helmsmen, those patching your leaks,your merchants, all your warriors in you,and all the company that is with you—they also sank into the sea’s depthon the day of your demise.
28 At your helmsmen’s cries for help,the troubled waters seethe.
