“Who was ever silenced like Tyre,

surrounded by the sea?”

33 When your merchandise went out on the seas,

you satisfied many nations;

with your great wealth and your wares

you enriched the kings of the earth.

34 Now you are shattered by the sea

in the depths of the waters;

your wares and all your company

have gone down with you.

35 All who live in the coastlands

are appalled at you;

their kings shudder with horror

and their faces are distorted with fear.

36 The merchants among the nations scoff at you;

you have come to a horrible end

and will be no more.’ ”

Kings at the ends of the earth

were enriched by your trade.

34 Now you are a wrecked ship,

broken at the bottom of the sea.

All your merchandise and crew

have gone down with you.

35 All who live along the coastlands

are appalled at your terrible fate.

Their kings are filled with horror

and look on with twisted faces.

shake their heads at the sight of you,

for you have come to a horrible end

and will exist no more.’ ”

You enriched the kings of the earth

With your many luxury goods and your merchandise.
