1In the eleventh year , in the first of the month , the LORD ’s word came to me , saying ,
2“Son of man , because Tyre has said against Jerusalem , ‘Aha ! She is broken ! She who was the gateway of the peoples has been returned to me . I will be replenished , now that she is laid waste ;’
3therefore the Lord GOD says , ‘Behold , I am against you , Tyre , and will cause many nations to come up against you , as the sea causes its waves to come up .
4They will destroy the walls of Tyre , and break down her towers . I will also scrape her dust from her , and make her a bare rock .
5She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the middle of the sea ; for I have spoken it ,’ says the Lord GOD . ‘She will become plunder for the nations .
6Her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword . Then they will know that I am the LORD .’
7“For the Lord GOD says : ‘Behold , I will bring on Tyre Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings , from the north , with horses , with chariots , with horsemen , and an army with many people .
8He will kill your daughters in the field with the sword . He will make forts against you , cast up a mound against you , and raise up the buckler against you .
9He will set his battering engines against your walls , and with his axes he will break down your towers .
10By reason of the abundance of his horses , their dust will cover you . Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen , of the wagons , and of the chariots , when he enters into your gates , as men enter into a city which is broken open .
11He will tread down all your streets with the hoofs of his horses . He will kill your people with the sword . The pillars of your strength will go down to the ground.
12They will make a plunder of your riches and make a prey of your merchandise . They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses . They will lay your stones, your timber , and your dust in the middle of the waters .
13I will cause the noise of your songs to cease . The sound of your harps won’t be heard any more .
14I will make you a bare rock . You will be a place for the spreading of nets . You will be built no more ; for I the LORD have spoken it ,’ says the Lord GOD .
15“The Lord GOD says to Tyre : ‘Won’t the islands shake at the sound of your fall , when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made within you ?
16Then all the princes of the sea will come down from their thrones , and lay aside their robes , and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling . They will sit on the ground, and will tremble every moment , and be astonished at you .
17They will take up a lamentation over you , and tell you ,
“How you are destroyed,
who were inhabited by seafaring men ,
the renowned city ,
who was strong in the sea ,
she and her inhabitants ,
who caused their terror to be on all who lived there !”
18Now the islands will tremble in the day of your fall .
Yes, the islands that are in the sea will be dismayed at your departure .’
19“For the Lord GOD says : ‘When I make you a desolate city , like the cities that are not inhabited , when I bring up the deep on you , and the great waters cover you ,
20then I will bring you down with those who descend into the pit, to the people of old time , and will make you dwell in the lower parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old , with those who go down to the pit, that you be not inhabited ; and I will set glory in the land of the living .
21I will make you a terror , and you will no more have any being . Though you are sought for , yet you will never be found again ,’ says the Lord GOD .”
