O thou

“Your borders are in the heart of the seas;
Your builders have perfected your beauty.

They will take up a lamentation over you and say to you,
‘How you have perished, O inhabited one,
From the seas, O renowned city,
Which was mighty on the sea,
She and her inhabitants,
Who imposed her terror
On all her inhabitants!

“Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre, ‘Thus says the Lord God,
“Because your heart is lifted up
And you have said, ‘I am a god,
I sit in the seat of gods
In the heart of the seas’;
Yet you are a man and not God,
Although you make your heart like the heart of God—

Be silent, you inhabitants of the coastland,

You merchants of Sidon;

Your messengers crossed the sea

And were on many waters.

The grain of the

Nile, the harvest of the River was her revenue;

And she was the market of nations.

For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the passion of her immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed acts of immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich by the wealth of her

sensuality.”

Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

The Lord of hosts has planned it, to defile the pride of all beauty,

To despise all the honored of the earth.
