Wo, wo, wo unto this people; wo unto the inhabitants of the whole earth, except they shall repent, for the Devil laugheth, and his angels rejoice, because of the slain of the fair sons and daughters of my people; and it is because of their iniquity and abominations that they are fallen.

“How terrible for these people! How terrible for everyone on earth unless they turn from their sins! The Devil is laughing. His angels are happy because my people have been killed. They died because of their sins and bad things they did.”
Paraphrase
“Disaster is coming for this people—for everyone on earth—unless you turn back to me. The Devil is laughing, and his angels are celebrating the deaths of my people, beautiful sons and daughters, all because of your wickedness and your corrupt ways.”
