Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,

The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.

Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive.

And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.

Haran, and Canneh, and Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad, were thy merchants.

Asshur is there and all her company: his graves are about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:

The sons of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram, and Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Meshech.

Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
