And all that handle the oar, the mariners, and all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships, they shall stand upon the land;
The mariners, and all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships. So on the downfall of spiritual Babylon, (Revelation 18:17, etc.)
Shall stand upon the land - being cast out of their ships, in which heretofore they prided themselves.
