- et assumentes super te lamentum, dicent tibi : Quomodo peristi, quæ habitas in mari, urbs inclyta, quæ fuisti fortis in mari cum habitatoribus tuis, quos formidabant universi ?
- Septuagint (Swete)
- καὶ λήμψονται ἐπὶ σὲ θρῆνον καὶ ἐροῦσίν σοι Πῶς κατελύθης ἐκ θαλάσσης, ἡ πόλις ἡ ἐπαινετή, ἡ δοῦσα τὸν φόβον αὐτῆς πᾶσι τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν αὐτήν;
- Hebrew (WLC)
- וְנָשְׂא֨וּ עָלַ֤יִךְ קִינָה֙ וְאָ֣מְרוּ לָ֔ךְ אֵ֣יךְ אָבַ֔דְתְּ נוֹשֶׁ֖בֶת מִיַּמִּ֑ים הָעִ֣יר הַהֻלָּ֗לָה אֲשֶׁר֩ הָיְתָ֨ה חֲזָקָ֤ה בַיָּם֙ הִ֣יא וְיֹשְׁבֶ֔יהָ אֲשֶׁר נָתְנ֥וּ חִתִּיתָ֖ם לְכָל יוֹשְׁבֶֽיהָ
