KJV ORIGINAL
Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

✦ MADE SIMPLE
The traders from Sheba, Dedan, and Tarshish — along with all their business partners — are going to call you out: 'So you're really here just to rob everyone? You brought this whole army together to steal everything valuable — the silver, gold, livestock, and anything else worth taking?'
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Even the merchants can see through fake motives — greed always shows itself.
