“For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,”
'In one hour such great wealth has been brought to ruin!' Every sea captain, and all who travel by ship, the sailors, and all who earn their living from the sea, will stand far off - the seafarers and traders, whose ships once brought goods to Babylon, stand helpless as her commercial system collapses. A century of trade is reversed in a single hour.
