KJV ²⁶ Hast thou not heard long ago, how I have done it; and of ancient times, that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste defenced cities into ruinous heaps.

VULC ²⁶ Numquid non audisti quæ olim fecerim ei ?
Ex diebus antiquis ego plasmavi illud ;
et nunc adduxi,
et factum est in eradicationem collium compugnantium,
et civitatum munitarum.

KJV ²⁷ Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded: they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.

VULC ²⁷ Habitatores earum breviata manu
contremuerunt, et confusi sunt.
Facti sunt sicut fœnum agri,
et gramen pascuæ,
et herba tectorum,
quæ exaruit antequam maturesceret.
