And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
They're going to be completely destroyed, right alongside all the other ruined countries. Their cities will sit empty among all the other cities that have been wiped out.
When everything falls apart, you won't be falling alone, but that doesn't make it any less devastating.
