The word[H1697] of the LORD[H3068] came again unto me, saying[H559],
2
Now, thou son[H1121] of man[H120], take up[H5375] a lamentation[H7015] for Tyrus[H6865];
3
And say[H559] unto Tyrus[H6865], O thou that art situate[H3427] at the entry[H3997] of the sea[H3220], which art a merchant[H7402] of the people[H5971] for many[H7227]isles[H339], Thus saith[H559] the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069]; O Tyrus[H6865], thou hast said[H559], I am of perfect[H3632]beauty[H3308].
4
Thy borders[H1366] are in the midst[H3820] of the seas[H3220], thy builders[H1129] have perfected[H3634] thy beauty[H3308].
5
They have made[H1129] all thy ship boards[H3871] of fir trees[H1265] of Senir[H8149]: they have taken[H3947]cedars[H730] from Lebanon[H3844] to make[H6213]masts[H8650] for thee.
6
Of the oaks[H437] of Bashan[H1316] have they made[H6213] thine oars[H4880]; the company[H1323] of the Ashurites[H839] have made[H6213] thy benches[H7175] of ivory[H8127], brought out of the isles[H339] of Chittim[H3794].
7
Fine linen[H8336] with broidered work[H7553] from Egypt[H4714] was that which thou spreadest forth[H4666] to be thy sail[H5251]; blue[H8504] and purple[H713] from the isles[H339] of Elishah[H473] was that which covered[H4374] thee.

The ships[H591] of Tarshish[H8659] did sing[H7788] of thee in thy market[H4627]: and thou wast replenished[H4390], and made very[H3966]glorious[H3513] in the midst[H3820] of the seas[H3220].
26
Thy rowers[H7751] have brought[H935] thee into great[H7227]waters[H4325]: the east[H6921]wind[H7307] hath broken[H7665] thee in the midst[H3820] of the seas[H3220].
27
Thy riches[H1952], and thy fairs[H5801], thy merchandise[H4627], thy mariners[H4419], and thy pilots[H2259], thy calkers[H919], and the occupiers[H6148] of thy merchandise[H4627], and all thy men[H582] of war[H4421], that are in thee, and in all thy company[H6951] which is in the midst[H8432] of thee, shall fall[H5307] into the midst[H3820] of the seas[H3220] in the day[H3117] of thy ruin[H4658].

30
And shall cause their voice[H6963] to be heard[H8085] against thee, and shall cry[H2199]bitterly[H4751], and shall cast up[H5927]dust[H6083] upon their heads[H7218], they shall wallow[H6428] themselves in the ashes[H665]:
31
And they shall make themselves utterly[H7144]bald[H7139] for thee, and gird[H2296] them with sackcloth[H8242], and they shall weep[H1058] for thee with bitterness[H4751] of heart[H5315] and bitter[H4751]wailing[H4553].

And in their wailing[H5204] they shall take up[H5375] a lamentation[H7015] for thee, and lament[H6969] over thee, saying, What city is like Tyrus[H6865], like the destroyed[H1822] in the midst[H8432] of the sea?[H3220]
33
When thy wares[H5801] went forth[H3318] out of the seas[H3220], thou filledst[H7646]many[H7227]people[H5971]; thou didst enrich[H6238] the kings[H4428] of the earth[H776] with the multitude[H7230] of thy riches[H1952] and of thy merchandise[H4627].
34
In the time[H6256] when thou shalt be broken[H7665] by the seas[H3220] in the depths[H4615] of the waters[H4325] thy merchandise[H4627] and all thy company[H6951] in the midst[H8432] of thee shall fall[H5307].
35
All the inhabitants[H3427] of the isles[H339] shall be astonished[H8074] at thee, and their kings[H4428] shall be sore[H8178]afraid[H8175], they shall be troubled[H7481] in their countenance[H6440].
36
The merchants[H5503] among the people[H5971] shall hiss[H8319] at thee; thou shalt be a terror[H1091], and never shalt be any more[H5704].
