1. ¶ Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me saying,
2. “And you, son of man, ¹take up a lamentation over Tyre;
3. and say to Tyre, ²who dwells at the ^[a]entrance to the sea, ³merchant of the peoples to many coastlands, ‘Thus says the Lord ^[b]GOD,
   ¶ “O Tyre, you have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’
4. “Your borders are in the heart of the seas;
   Your builders have perfected your beauty.
5. “They have ^[c]made all your planks of fir trees from ⁴Senir;
   They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
6. “Of ⁵oaks from ⁶Bashan they have made your oars;
   With ivory they have ^[d]inlaid your deck of boxwood from the coastlands of ⁷Cyprus.
7. “Your sail was of fine embroidered linen from Egypt
   So that it became your ^[e]distinguishing mark;
   Your ^[f]awning was ^[g]8blue and purple from the coastlands of ⁹Elishah.
8. “The inhabitants of Sidon and ¹⁰Arvad were your rowers;
   Your ¹¹wise men, O Tyre, were ^[h]aboard; they were your pilots.
9. “The elders of ¹²Gebal and her wise men were with you repairing your seams;
   All the ships of the sea and their sailors were with you in order to deal in your merchandise.
10. ¶ “¹³Persia and ¹⁴Lud and ¹⁵Put were in your army, your men of war. They hung shield and helmet in you; they set forth your splendor.
11. The sons of Arvad and your army were on your walls, all around, and the ^[i]Gammadim were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around; they perfected your beauty.
12. ¶ “Tarshish was your customer because of the abundance of all kinds of wealth; with silver, iron, tin and lead they paid for your wares.
13. ¹⁶Javan, ¹⁷Tubal and ¹⁸Meshech, they were your traders; with the ¹⁹lives of men and vessels of bronze they paid for your merchandise.
14. Those from ²⁰Beth-togarmah gave horses and war horses and mules for your wares.
15. The sons of ²¹Dedan were your traders. Many coastlands were ^[j]your market; ²²ivory tusks and ebony they brought as your payment.
16. ²³Aram was your customer because of the abundance of your ^[k]goods; they paid for your wares with ²⁴emeralds, purple, ²⁵embroidered work, fine linen, coral and rubies.
17. Judah and the land of Israel, they were your traders; with the wheat of ²⁶Minnith, ^[l]cakes, honey, oil and balm they paid for your merchandise.
18. ²⁷Damascus was your customer because of the abundance of your ^[m]goods, because of the abundance of all kinds of wealth, because of the wine of Helbon and white wool.
19. Vedan and Javan paid for your wares ^[n]from Uzal; wrought iron, cassia and ^[o]sweet cane were among your merchandise.
20. ²⁸Dedan traded with you in saddlecloths for riding.
21. ²⁹Arabia and all the princes of Kedar, they were ^[p]your customers for ³⁰lambs, rams and goats; for these they were your customers.
22. The traders of ³¹Sheba and Raamah, they traded with you; they paid for your wares with the best of all kinds of ³²spices, and with all kinds of precious stones and gold.
23. Haran, Canneh, ³³Eden, the traders of Sheba, Asshur and Chilmad traded with you.
24. They traded with you in choice garments, in clothes of ^[q]blue and embroidered work, and in carpets of many colors and tightly wound cords, which were among your merchandise.
25. The ³⁴ships of Tarshish were ^[r]the carriers for your merchandise.
    ¶ And you were filled and were very ^[s]glorious
    In the heart of the seas.
26. ¶ “Your rowers have brought you
    Into ³⁵great waters;
    The ³⁶east wind has broken you
    In the heart of the seas.
27. “Your wealth, your wares, your merchandise,
    Your sailors and your pilots,
    Your repairers of seams, your dealers in merchandise
    And all your men of war who are in you,
    With all your company that is in your midst,
    Will fall into the heart of the seas
    On the day of your overthrow.
28. “At the sound of the cry of your pilots
    The pasture lands will ³⁷shake.
29. “All who handle the oar,
    The ³⁸sailors and all the pilots of the sea
    Will come down from their ships;
    They will stand on the land,
30. And they will ³⁹make their voice heard over you
    And will cry bitterly.
    They will ⁴⁰cast dust on their heads,
    They will ⁴¹wallow in ashes.
31. “Also they will make themselves ⁴²bald for you
    And ⁴³gird themselves with sackcloth;
    And they will ⁴⁴weep for you in bitterness of soul
    With bitter mourning.
32. “Moreover, in their wailing they will take up a ⁴⁵lamentation for you
    And lament over you:
    ‘Who is like Tyre,
    Like her who is silent in the midst of the sea?
33. ‘When your wares went out from the seas,
    You satisfied many peoples;
    With the ⁴⁶abundance of your wealth and your merchandise
    You enriched the kings of earth.
34. ‘^[t]Now that you are ⁴⁷broken by the seas
    In the depths of the waters,
    Your ⁴⁸merchandise and all your company
    Have fallen in the midst of you.
35. ‘All the ⁴⁹inhabitants of the coastlands
    Are appalled at you,
    And their kings are horribly afraid;
    They are troubled in countenance.
36. ‘The merchants among the peoples ⁵⁰hiss at you;
    You have become ^[u]terrified
    And you ⁵¹will cease to be forever.’”’”
