Here is a message about Tyre: Wail, you large ships, for the port is too devastated to enter! From the land of Cyprus this news is announced to them.Lament, you residents of the coast, you merchants of Sidon who travel over the sea, whose agents sail overthe deep waters! Grain from the Shihor region, crops grown near the Nile she receives; she is the trade center of the nations.Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea says this, O fortress of the sea:“ I have not gone into labor or given birth; I have not raised young men or brought up young women.”When the news reaches Egypt, they will be shaken by what has happened to Tyre.Travel to Tarshish! Wail, you residents of the coast!Is this really your boisterous city whose origins are in the distant past, and whose feet led her to a distant land to reside?

Your rowers have brought you into surging waters. The east wind has wrecked you in the heart of the seas.Your wealth, products, and merchandise, your sailors and captains, your ship’s carpenters, your merchants, and all your fighting men within you, along with all your crew who are in you, will fall into the heart of the seas on the day of your downfall.At the sound of your captains’ cry the waves will surge;They will descend from their ships– all who handle the oar, the sailors and all the sea captains– they will stand on the land.They will lament loudly over you and cry bitterly. They will throw dust on their heads and roll in the ashes;they will tear out their hair because of you and put on sackcloth, and they will weep bitterly over you with intense mourning.As they wail they will lament over you, chanting:“ Who was like Tyre, like a tower in the midst of the sea?”When your products went out from the seas, you satisfied many peoples; with the abundance of your wealth and merchandise you enriched the kings of the earth.Now you are wrecked by the seas, in the depths of the waters; your merchandise and all your company have sunk along with you.All the inhabitants of the coastlands are shocked at you, and their kings are horribly afraid– their faces are troubled.The traders among the peoples hiss at you; you have become a horror, and will be no more.’”

She will become plunder for the nations,
