6 And behold, after them sprouted seven ears, thin and blighted by the peast wind.
7 By the xeast wind you shattered
the ships of Tarshish.
8 Measure by measure,1 by exile you contended with them;
he removed them with his fierce breath2 in the day of the east wind.
17 Like the east wind I will scatter them
before the enemy.
I will show them my dback, not my face,
in the day of their calamity.”
10 Behold, it is planted; will it thrive? Will it not utterly wither when the deast wind strikes it—wither away on the bed where it sprouted?”
15 Though he may flourish among his brothers,
the east gwind, the wind of the Lord, shall come,
rising from the wilderness,
and his fountain shall dry up;
his spring shall be parched;
it shall strip his treasury
of every precious thing.
