Ezekiel26:19

19 For thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon thee, and great waters shall cover thee.

Have made thee what now I threaten I will make thee.

In the same state with Cities, that have not any to dwell in them, whose Walls are broken down, and into whose Streets all solitary wild Beasts may come at pleasure.

Figuratively, Nebuchadnezzars Army, Literally, when thy Walls, and Ramparts are so broken down by the Chaldaeans, that the Sea, at high Tides, and in stormy swelling Seas overflows part of thine Antient Seat.

Either Literally, as the deep coming up, or Metaphorically great Afflictions shall flow over thee.
