22 Merchants from Sheba and Raamah gave you excellent spices, precious stones, and gold in exchange for your products.
23 You also did business with merchants from the cities of Haran, Canneh, Eden, Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad,
24 and they gave you expensive clothing, purple and embroidered cloth, brightly-coloured rugs, and strong rope.
25 Large, seagoing ships carried your goods wherever they needed to go.You were like a shiploaded with heavy cargo
26 and sailing across the sea,but you were wreckedby strong eastern winds.
27 Everything on board was lost—your valuable cargo,your sailors and carpenters,merchants and soldiers.
28 The shouts of your drowning crewwere heard on the shore.
