- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Laxati sunt funiculi tui, et non prævalebunt ; sic erit malus tuus ut dilatare signum non queas. Tunc dividentur spolia prædarum multarum ; claudi diripient rapinam.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- ἐρράγησαν τὰ σχοινία σου, ὅτι οὐκ ἐνίσχυσαν· ὁ ἱστός σου ἔκλινεν, οὐ χαλάσει τὰ ἱστία, οὐκ ἀρεῖ σημεῖον, ἕως οὗ παραδοθῇ εἰς προνομήν· τοίνυν πολλοὶ χωλοὶ προνομὴν ποιήσουσιν.
- Hebrew (WLC)

Thy tacklings. He speaks of the enemies of the Church, under the allegory of a ship that is disabled. (Challoner)
Sennacherib shall attempt invasion no more than a ship without masts would put to sea.
