Context2:15 This is how the once-proud city will end up 1 –
the city that was so secure. 2
She thought to herself, 3 “I am unique! No one can compare to me!” 4
What a heap of ruins she has become, a place where wild animals live!
Everyone who passes by her taunts her 5 and shakes his fist. 6
1 tn Heb “this is the proud city.”
2 tn Heb “the one that lived securely.”
3 tn Heb “the one who says in her heart.”
4 tn Heb “I [am], and besides me there is no other.”
5 tn Heb “hisses”; or “whistles.”
