Ezekiel 27

27The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying, ²Now, thou son of man, ^atake up a lamentation for Tyrus; ³And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at ^bthe entry of the sea, which art ^ca merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord God; O Tyrus, thou hast said, ^dI am ^†of perfect beauty. ⁴Thy borders are in the ^†midst of the seas, thy builders ^dhave perfected thy beauty. ⁵They have ^†made all thy ship boards of ^efir trees of ^fSenir: they have taken ^gcedars from Lebanon to make ^hmasts for thee. ⁶Of ⁱthe oaks of Bashan have they made thine ^joars; ^||†the company of ^lthe Ashurites have made thy benches of ivory, brought out of ^mthe isles of Chittim. ⁷ⁿFine linen with ^obroidered work ^pfrom Egypt was ^qthat which thou spreadest forth to be ^rthy sail; ^||sblue and ^stpurple from the isles of ^uElishah was that which covered thee. ⁸The inhabitants of Zidon and ^vArvad were ^wthy mariners: thy wise men, O Tyrus, that were in thee, were thy ^xpilots. ⁹The ancients of ^yGebal and the wise men thereof were in thee ^zthy ^||†calkers: all the ships of the sea with their ^amariners were in thee ^zto ^boccupy thy merchandise. ¹⁰They of ^cPersia and of ^deLud and of ^cdfPhut were in thine army, ^gthy men of war: ^ggthey hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they set forth ^hthy comeliness. ¹¹The men of ^vArvad with thine army were upon thy walls round about, and the Gammadims were in thy towers: ^ggthey hanged ⁱtheir shields upon thy walls round about; ^jthey have made thy beauty perfect. ^12kTarshish was ^lthy merchant by reason of the multitude of all kind of riches; with silver, iron, tin, and lead, ^mthey traded in thy fairs. ^13nopJavan, ^noqTubal, and ^nqrMeshech, they were thy merchants: they traded ^sthe persons of men and vessels of brass in thy ^||market. ¹⁴They of the house of ^tTogarmah ^mtraded in thy fairs with horses and horsemen and mules. ¹⁵The men of ^uDedan were thy merchants; many isles were the merchandise of thine hand: they brought thee for ^va present horns of ivory and ebony. ¹⁶Syria was ^lthy merchant by reason of the multitude of ^†the wares of thy making: ^mthey occupied in thy fairs with ^wemeralds, ^xpurple, and ^xbroidered work, and ^yfine linen, and ^zcoral, and ^||aagate. ¹⁷Judah, and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants: they traded in thy market ^bwheat of ^cMinnith, and Pannag, and honey, and oil, and ^||dbalm. ^18eDamascus was thy merchant in the multitude of the wares of thy making, for the multitude of all riches; in the wine of Helbon, and ^fwhite wool. ¹⁹Dan also and Javan ^||going to and fro ^goccupied in thy fairs: bright iron, ^hcassia, and ⁱcalamus, were in thy market. ^20kDedan was thy merchant in ^†precious clothes for chariots. ^21lArabia, and all the princes of ^mKedar, ^†they occupied with thee in lambs, and rams, and goats: in these were they thy merchants. ²²The merchants of ^noSheba and ⁿRaamah, they were ^pthy merchants: ^pthey occupied in thy fairs with ⁱchief of all spices, and with all precious stones, and gold. ^23qHaran, and Canneh, and ^qEden, the merchants of ^oSheba, ^rAsshur, and Chilmad, were thy merchants. ²⁴These were thy merchants in ^||all sorts of things, in ^sblue ^†clothes, and ^sbroidered work, and in chests of rich apparel, bound with cords, and made of cedar, among thy merchandise. ^25tThe ships of ^uTarshish did sing of thee in thy market: and thou wast replenished, and made very glorious in the ^vmidst of the seas. ^26wThy rowers have brought thee into great waters: ^xthe east wind hath broken thee in the ^†midst of the seas. ^27yThy riches, and ^zthy fairs, ^athy merchandise, ^bthy mariners, and ^cthy pilots, ^bthy calkers, and ^bthe occupiers of thy merchandise, and all ^dthy men of war, that are in thee, ^||and in ^eall thy company which is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the ^†midst of the seas ^fin the day of thy ruin. ^28gThe ^||suburbs ^hshall shake at the sound of the cry of ^cthy pilots. ²⁹ⁱAnd all that handle ^kthe oar, ^bthe mariners, and all ^cthe pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships, they shall stand upon the land; ³⁰ⁱAnd shall cause their voice to be heard against thee, and shall cry bitterly, and shall ^locast up dust upon their heads, they shall ^mwallow themselves in the ashes: ³¹And they shall ⁿmake themselves utterly bald for thee, and ^ogird them with sackcloth, and they shall ^lweep for thee ^oowith bitterness of heart and bitter wailing. ³²And in their wailing they shall ^ptake up a lamentation for thee, and ^pplament over thee, saying, ⁱWhat city is like Tyrus, like the destroyed ^qin the midst of the sea? ^33rWhen ^sthy wares went forth out of the seas, thou filledst many people; ^tthou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the multitude of thy riches and of ^athy merchandise. ³⁴In the time ^uwhen thou shalt be broken by the seas ^vin the depths of the waters ^athy merchandise and ^eall thy company in the midst of thee shall fall. ^35wAll the inhabitants of the isles ^xyshall be astonished at thee, and ^ytheir kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled in their countenance. ^36zThe merchants among the people shall ^ahiss at thee; ^bthou shalt be ^†a terror, and ^†never shalt be any more.
