* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.
The light of a lamp will never shine in you again, and the voices of a bride and bridegroom will never call out in you again. For your merchants were the great ones of the earth, because all the nations were deceived by your sorcery.”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you; for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived.
World English Bible (WEB)
And{G2532} the light{G5457} of a candle{G3088} shall shine{G5316}{(G5652)} no more{G3364} at all{G2089} in{G1722} thee{G4671}; and{G2532} the voice{G5456} of the bridegroom{G3566} and{G2532} of the bride{G3565} shall be heard{G191}{(G5686)} no more{G3364} at all{G2089} in{G1722} thee{G4671}: for{G3754} thy{G4675} merchants{G1713} were{G2258}{(G5713)} the great men{G3175} of the earth{G1093}; for{G3754} by{G1722} thy{G4675} sorceries{G5331} were{G4105} all{G3956} nations{G1484} deceived{G4105}{(G5681)}.
Strong's King James
(23) The light of a lamp won't shine in you still and the bridegroom's voice won't be heard in you still because your merchants were the nobles of the land because all the nations were deceived-astray by your sorcerous potions.
The F.O.G*
[23] No lamp will ever shine in you again. No bride and groom will celebrate their joy. Your merchants were the world's great people, and you deceived all nations with your sorcery.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and light of a lamp may not shine at all in thee any more; and voice of bridegroom and of bride may not be heard at all in thee any more; because thy merchants were the great ones of the earth, because in thy sorcery were all the nations led astray,
