וְהוֹרַדְתִּיךְ֩ אֶת־י֨וֹרְדֵי ב֜וֹר אֶל־עַ֣ם עוֹלָ֗ם וְ֠הוֹשַׁבְתִּיךְ בְּאֶ֨רֶץ תַּחְתִּיּ֜וֹת כָּחֳרָב֤וֹת מֵֽעוֹלָם֙ אֶת־י֣וֹרְדֵי ב֔וֹר לְמַ֖עַן לֹ֣א תֵשֵׁ֑בִי וְנָתַתִּ֥י צְבִ֖י בְּאֶ֥רֶץ חַיִּֽים׃
maka Aku akan menurunkan engkau bersama mereka yang turun ke liang kubur, kepada bangsa dari zaman purbakala. Aku akan menempatkan engkau di negeri yang paling bawah, seperti reruntuhan sejak zaman purbakala, bersama mereka yang turun ke liang kubur, supaya engkau tidak berpenghuni; dan Aku akan menaruh kemuliaan di negeri orang-orang hidup.
