Ezekiel 26

26 In the eleventh year, the first day of the month, this word from the Eternal came to me: 2 “Son of man, since Tyre has gloated over Jerusalem,

‘Aha! this door into the nations is broken down!

It lies open to me; I shall prosper, now she is laid waste,’ 3 therefore the Lord the Eternal 3 utters this sentence:

‘Tyre, I am against you, and against you

I will bring many a nation, as the sea brings many a wave,

till they destroy the walls of Tyre and level her high towers;

I will scrape the very dust from her and leave her a bare rock,

a place for spreading nets on, in the middle of the sea--

I have said it, the Lord the Eternal declares--

and her townships on the mainland shall fall by the sword:

to let them know that I am the Eternal.’

7 For this is the Lord the Eternal’s sentence: ‘I bring down upon Tyre Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, the king of kings, with horses and chariots and cavalry and a host of many races from the north.

Your townships on the mainland

he puts to the sword;

against you he raises forts,

against you he throws up mounds,

against you he masses shields,

drives the battering-ram

against your walls,

breaks your towers down

with his axes.

So many are his horses

that their dust covers you;

your walls shake

at the din of his cavalry,

his chariots and cars,

as he enters your gates

like a conqueror entering

a tower that is breached;

all your streets he tramples

with his horses’ hoofs,

your folk he slays with the sword,

your proud pillars crash to the ground;

your wealth is plundered,

your merchandise looted,

your walls are shattered,

your fine halls ruined,

your stones and timber and your very dust

are sunk within the sea.

I will silence the music of your songs,

no lyre shall be heard any longer;

I will make you a bare rock,

a place for spreading nets on,

and never to be built again--

for I the Eternal have said it.’

Such is the sentence of the Lord the Eternal.

15 This is the Lord the Eternal’s word for Tyre: ‘At the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan during the massacre, shall not the coast-lands tremble? 16 The princes of the seaboard will come down from their thrones and lay aside their robes and strip off their embroidered dress; trembling all over, they will sit on the earth, quivering every moment and shuddering over you. 17 They will raise this dirge for you, crying:

How you have vanished from the seas,

O city of renown!

Once so strong upon the seas,

you and your folk,

once a terror to

haunters of the sea!

Now at your passing the sea-lands

are scared.’

19 For the Lord the Eternal declares: ‘When I make you a desolate city, like cities uninhabited, when I turn the ocean upon you and the deep waters cover you, 20 then I will thrust you down with those who descend to the world below, to the ancient dead; I will make you dwell in the nether regions, in primeval wastes, never to be inhabited, never to take your place again in the land of the living; 21 I will utterly destroy you, and you shall exist no longer; you may be sought for, but never shall you be found--the Lord the Eternal has said it.’ ”
