JUDGMENT OF ZION’S ENEMIES

9 A pronouncement:

The word of the Lord

is against the land of Hadrach,

and Damascusa is its resting place—

for the eyes of humanity

and all the tribes of Israel

are on the LordA—

2 and also against Hamath,b which borders it,

as well as Tyrec and Sidon,d

though they are very shrewd.

3 Tyre has built herself a fortress;

she has heaped up silver like dust

and gold like the dirt of the streets.

4 Listen! The Lord will impoverish her

and cast her wealth into the sea;

she herself will be consumed by fire.e
