Ezekiel 27:26-36 - The Destruction Of Tyre

26 Into mighty waters, have they brought thee, the rowers - even thee, - the east wind, hath broken thee In the heart of the seas: 27 Thy wealth and thy wares, thy merchandise thy mariners, and thy sailors,-thy calkers and the barterers of thy merchandise and all thy men of war who are in thee and in all thy gathered host which is in thy midst Shall fall into the heart of the seas, In the day of thy fall.

28 At the sound of the outcry of thy pots, the coasts shall quake: 29 Then shall come down from their ships all that handle the oar, mariners, all the sailors of the sea - Upon the land, shall they take up their station; 30 And make loud lament over thee, with their voice, And make biter outcry,- And shall lift up dust on their heads, In ashes, shall roll themselves; 31 And shall make bald for thee a baldness And gird them with sackcloth, - And shall weep for time in bitterness of soul. A biter lamentation;

32 And shall take up for thee in their Wailing: a dirge, And shall chant over thee,- Who is like Tyre? Like the Sent One in the midst of the sea? 33 By the going forth of thy commodities out of the seas, Thou didst satisfy many peoples, By the multitude of thy wares and of thy merchandise, Thou didst enrich the kings of the earth. 34 Now, thou art wrecked out of the seas In the depths of waters, - Thy merchandise and all thy gathered host In thy midst, have fallen. 35 All the dwellers in the coastlands, Are astounded over thee,- And their king have been made to shudder a shuddering, To be troubled in countenance. 36 the traders among the peoples, have hissed over thee: A terror, hast thou become, And I art not, Unto times age-abiding.
