¹And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me and said, ²“Son of Adam, because Tyre has said concerning Jerusalem, ‘Ha! She who was the gateway of the various peoples is broken. She has been diverted to me. I will be filled; she has been laid waste’, ³this is what the Lord, the Lord, says: ‘I am here against you, Tyre, and I will bring many nations up against you, as the sea brings its waves up, ⁴and they will pull down the walls of Tyre and demolish her towers. Then I will sweep her dust away from her, and I will make her a dry rock. ⁵It will be a place for spreading out nets in the middle of the sea, for I have spoken, says the Lord, the Lord, and it will be spoil to the nations. ⁶And her daughters in the countryside will be killed by the sword, and they will know that I am the Lord. ⁷For this is what the Lord, the Lord, says: «I am about to bring to Tyre Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, from the north, the king of kings, with cavalry and with chariots and with horsemen, and a contingent, and many people. ⁸He will kill your daughters in the field by the sword, and he will place a wall of circumvallation against you. And he will cast up a rampart against you, and he will raise the buckler against you. ⁹And he will use battering rams on your walls, and he will demolish your towers with his axes. ¹⁰Because of the large number of his horses, their dust will cover you; your walls will shake at the sound of horsemen and wheels and chariots, when he comes to your gates, as the influx into a breached city. ¹¹He will trample on all your outlying areas with the hooves of his horses; he will kill your people by the sword, and your strong idolatrous statues will fall to the ground. ¹²And they will plunder your wealth and take your merchandise as spoil, and they will demolish your walls and pull down your delightful houses, and they will put your stones and your timbers and your dust in the water. ¹³And I will put a stop to the sound of your songs, and the tones of your harps will not be heard any more. ¹⁴And I will make you a dry rock; you will be a place for spreading nets. You will not be built any more, for I, the Lord, have spoken, says the Lord, the Lord.» ¹⁵This is what the Lord, the Lord, says to Tyre: «Will not the coastlands tremble at the sound of your fall, at the groaning of the casualties, at the killing taking place within your precincts? ¹⁶And all the princely seafarers will come down from their thrones and remove their robes, and they will take their embroidered clothing off. They will put on tremblings, they will sit on the ground, they will tremble all the time, and they will be astonished at you. ¹⁷And they will deliver a lamentation for you, and they will say to you,

‹How you have perished,

You who were inhabited by virtue of maritime activity,

The renowned city which was strong on the sea

– She and her inhabitants –

Where fear is instilled in all her inhabitants.

¹⁸Now the maritime countries will tremble,

On the day of your fall.

And the island countries which are in the sea

Will be terrified at your demise.›

¹⁹For this is what the Lord, the Lord, says: ‹When I make you a desolate city like the cities which are not inhabited, when I bring the ocean over you, and abundant waters cover you, ²⁰I will bring you down with those who go down into the pit, to the people of a past age, and I will install you in the underworld – indeed the desolate places of a past age – with those who descend into the pit, so that you will not be inhabited, and I will display splendour in the land of the living. ²¹I will appoint you terrors, and you will be no more, and you will be sought but not found any more, age-abidingly, says the Lord, the Lord.› » ’ ”
