26 f "Meshech-Tubal is e there, and all her multitude, e her graves all around it, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for they spread their terror in the land of the living. 27 And g they do not lie with the mighty, the fallen from among the uncircumcised, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were laid under their heads, and whose iniquities are upon their bones; for the terror of the mighty men was in the land of the living. 28 But as for you, you shall be broken h and lie among the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword.

29 i "Edom is j there, her kings and all her princes, who for all their might are laid with those who are killed by the sword; they lie with the uncircumcised, with those who go down to the pit.

31 "When Pharaoh sees them, he o will be comforted for p all his multitude, Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword, declares the Lord God. 32 q For I spread terror r in the land of the living; and he shall be laid to rest among s the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword, Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares the Lord God."
