The word of the LORD came to me:
Son of man, raise a lament over Tyre.
Say to Tyre, who sits at the gateways to the sea, merchant of the peoples to many coastlands: This is what the Lord GOD says: Tyre, you said, "I am perfect in beauty."
Your borders lay in the heart of the sea; your builders made your beauty perfect.
They built all your planking of cypress from Senir; they took a cedar from Lebanon to make your mast.
They made your oars of oaks from Bashan; they made your deck of pine from the coasts of Cyprus, inlaid with ivory.
Your sail was embroidered linen from Egypt, and it served as your banner; your awnings were blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah.
Men of Sidon and Arvad were your rowers; your own skilled men, Tyre, were aboard as your pilots.
The elders of Gebal and its craftsmen were with you, caulking your seams. All the ships of the sea and their sailors came to you to trade for your wares.
Persia, Lud, and Put served in your army as your fighting men. They hung their shields and helmets on your walls and gave you your splendor.
The men of Arvad and your own troops manned your walls all around, and men of Gammad were in your towers. They hung their shields around your walls; they made your beauty complete.
Tarshish traded with you because of your great wealth of goods; they exchanged silver, iron, tin, and lead for your merchandise.
Greece, Tubal, and Meshech traded with you; they exchanged slaves and articles of bronze for your goods.
Men of Beth Togarmah exchanged horses, warhorses, and mules for your merchandise.
The men of Dedan traded with you; many coastlands were your customers. They paid you with ivory tusks and ebony.
Aram traded with you because of your many products; they exchanged turquoise, purple cloth, embroidered work, fine linen, coral, and rubies for your merchandise.
Judah and the land of Israel traded with you; they exchanged wheat from Minnith, confections, honey, oil, and balm for your goods.
Damascus traded with you because of your many products and your great wealth of goods; they brought wine from Helbon and wool from Zahar.
Vedan and Javan from Uzal traded for your merchandise; wrought iron, cassia, and cane were part of your trade.
Dedan traded with you in saddle blankets.
Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your customers; they traded with you in lambs, rams, and goats.
The merchants of Sheba and Raamah traded with you; they exchanged the finest of all spices, precious stones of every kind, and gold for your merchandise.
Haran, Canneh, and Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad traded with you.
They traded with you in fine garments, in blue cloth and embroidered work, and in carpets of many colors, bound with cords and tightly wound, in your marketplace.
The ships of Tarshish carried your wares. You were filled with cargo, heavy laden in the heart of the seas.
Your oarsmen brought you out into the deep waters, but the east wind shattered you in the heart of the sea.
Your wealth, your merchandise, your wares, your sailors and pilots, those who caulked your seams and traded for your goods, all your fighting men on board and the whole company within you—they will sink into the heart of the sea on the day you fall.
At the sound of your pilots' cry, the settlements on the mainland will tremble.
All who handle the oar will abandon their ships; the sailors and all the pilots of the sea will stand on the shore.
They will raise their voices over you and cry out bitterly; they will throw dust on their heads and roll in ashes.
They will shave their heads because of you and put on sackcloth. They will weep over you in anguish of soul, with bitter mourning.
In their wailing they will raise a lament for you and sing this dirge over you: "Who was ever silenced like Tyre, out in the midst of the sea?"
When your wares went out over the seas, you satisfied many nations; with your great wealth and merchandise you enriched the kings of the earth.
Now you are shattered by the sea in the depths of the waters; your goods and your whole company have gone down with you.
All who live in the coastlands are appalled at you; their kings shudder with horror, their faces twisted in dismay.
The merchants among the nations hiss at you; you have come to a horrible end and will be no more, forever.
