Proclamation against Tyre

26In the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me:H6249H6240H8141H259H2320H1697H3068H559 2Mortal, because Tyre said concerning Jerusalem, "Aha, broken is the gateway of the peoples; it has swung open to me; I shall be replenished, now that it is wasted."H1121H120H6865H559H3389H1889H7665H1817H5971H5437H4390H2717 3Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD: See, I am against you, O Tyre! I will hurl many nations against you, as the sea hurls its waves.H559H136H3069H6865H7227H1471H5927H3220H1530H5927 4They shall destroy the walls of Tyre and break down its towers. I will scrape its soil from it and make it a bare rock.H7843H2346H6865H2040H4026H5500H6083H5414H6706H5553 5It shall become, in the midst of the sea, a place for spreading nets. I have spoken, says the Lord GOD. It shall become plunder for the nations,H4894H2764H8432H3220H1696H5002H136H3069H957H1471 6and its daughter-towns in the country shall be killed by the sword. Then they shall know that I am the LORD.H1323H7704H2026H2719H3045H3068 7For thus says the Lord GOD: I will bring against Tyre from the north King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon, king of kings, together with horses, chariots, cavalry, and a great and powerful army.H559H136H3069H935H6865H5019H4428H894H4428H4428H6828H5483H7393H6571H6951H7227H5971 8Your daughter-towns in the country he shall put to the sword. He shall set up a siege-wall against you, cast up a ramp against you, and raise a roof of shields against you.H2026H2719H1323H7704H5414H1785H8210H5550H6965H6793 9He shall direct the shock of his battering rams against your walls and break down your towers with his axes.H5414H4239H6904H2346H2719H5422H4026 10His horses shall be so many that their dust shall cover you. At the noise of cavalry, wheels, and chariots your very walls shall shake, when he enters your gates like those entering a breached city.H8229H5483H80H3680H2346H7493H6963H6571H1534H7393H935H8179H3996H5892H1234 11With the hoofs of his horses he shall trample all your streets. He shall put your people to the sword, and your strong pillars shall fall to the ground.H6541H5483H7429H2351H2026H5971H2719H5797H4676H3381H776 12They will plunder your riches and loot your merchandise: they shall break down your walls and destroy your fine houses. Your stones and timber and soil they shall cast into the water.H7997H2428H962H7404H2040H2346H5422H2532H1004H7760H68H6086H6083H8432H4325 13I will silence the music of your songs; the sound of your lyres shall be heard no more.H1995H7892H7673H6963H3658H8085 14I will make you a bare rock; you shall be a place for spreading nets. You shall never again be rebuilt, for I the LORD have spoken, says the Lord GOD.H5414H6706H5553H4894H2764H4894H1129H3068H1696H5002H136H3069 15Thus says the Lord GOD to Tyre: Shall not the coastlands shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when slaughter goes on within you?H559H136H3069H6865H339H7493H6963H4658H2491H602H2027H2026H8432 16Then all the princes of the sea shall step down from their thrones; they shall remove their robes and strip off their embroidered garments. They shall clothe themselves with trembling, and shall sit on the ground; they shall tremble every moment, and be appalled at you.H5387H3220H3381H3678H5493H4598H6584H7553H899H3847H2731H3427H776H2729H7281H8074 17And they shall raise a lamentation over you, and say to you: How you have vanished from the seas, O city renowned, once mighty on the sea, you and your inhabitants, who imposed your terror on all the mainland!H5375H7015H559H6H3427H3220H1984H5892H2389H3220H3427H5414H2851H3427 18Now the coastlands tremble on the day of your fall; the coastlands by the sea are dismayed at your passing.H339H2729H3117H4658H339H3220H926H3318 19For thus says the Lord GOD: When I make you a city laid waste, like cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep over you, and the great waters cover you,H559H136H3069H5414H2717H5892H5892H3427H5927H8415H7227H4325H3680 20then I will thrust you down with those who descend into the Pit, to the people of long ago, and I will make you live in the world below, among primeval ruins, with those who go down to the Pit, so that you will not be inhabited or have a place in the land of the living.H3381H3381H953H5971H5769H3427H8482H776H2723H5769H3381H953H3427H5414H6643H776H2416 21I will bring you to a dreadful end, and you shall be no more; though sought for, you will never be found again, says the Lord GOD.H5414H1091H1245H5769H4672H5002H136H3069
