Ezekiel 27:25–36

²⁵“The ^vships of Tarshish were carriers of your merchandise.

You were filled and very glorious ^win the midst of the seas.

²⁶Your oarsmen brought you into many waters,

But ^xthe east wind broke you in the midst of the seas.

²⁷“Your ^yriches, wares, and merchandise,

Your mariners and pilots,

Your caulkers and merchandisers,

All your men of war who are in you,

And the entire company which is in your midst,

Will fall into the midst of the seas on the day of your ruin.

²⁸The ^zcommon-land ⁷will shake at the sound of the cry of your pilots.

²⁹“All ^awho handle the oar,

The mariners,

All the pilots of the sea

Will come down from their ships and stand on the ⁸shore.

³⁰They will make their voice heard because of you;

They will cry bitterly and ^bcast dust on their heads;

They ^cwill roll about in ashes;

³¹They will ^dshave themselves completely bald because of you,

Gird themselves with sackcloth,

And weep for you

With bitterness of heart and bitter wailing.

³²In their wailing for you

They will ^etake up a lamentation,

And lament for you:

^f‘What city is like Tyre,

Destroyed in the midst of the sea?

³³‘When ^gyour wares went out by sea,

You satisfied many people;

You enriched the kings of the earth

With your many luxury goods and your merchandise.

³⁴But ^hyou are broken by the seas in the depths of the waters;

ⁱYour merchandise and the entire company will fall in your midst.

^35jAll the inhabitants of the isles will be astonished at you;

Their kings will be greatly afraid,

And their countenance will be troubled.

³⁶The merchants among the peoples ^kwill hiss at you;

^lYou will become a horror, and be no ^mmore forever.’ ” ’ ”
