11–17“The traders will cry and carry on because the bottom dropped out of business, no more market for their goods: gold, silver, precious gems, pearls; fabrics of fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet; perfumed wood and vessels of ivory, precious woods, bronze, iron, and marble; cinnamon and spice, incense, myrrh, and frankincense; wine and oil, flour and wheat; cattle, sheep, horses, and chariots. And slaves—their terrible traffic in human lives.

And fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet,

And all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory,

And all manner vessels of most precious wood,

And of brass, and iron, and marble,

And cinnamon, and odours,

And ointments, and frankincense,

And wine, and oil,

And fine flour, and wheat,

And beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots,

And slaves, and souls of men.
