"Those who see you will gaze at you, They will ^[h]ponder over you, saying, ‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble, Who shook kingdoms,

Who made the world like a ^(u)wilderness And overthrew its cities, Who ^(v)did not ^[i]allow his prisoners to go home?'

"All the kings of the nations lie in glory, Each in his own ^[j]tomb.

"But you have been ^(w)cast out of your tomb Like ^[k]a rejected branch, ^[l]Clothed with the slain who are pierced with a sword, Who go down to the stones of the ^(x)pit Like a ^(y)trampled corpse.

"You will not be united with them in burial, Because you have ruined your country, You have slain your people. May the ^(z)offspring of evildoers not be mentioned forever.
