- Kapitel 27 -

1
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2
Now you, son of man, take up a lament for Tyre.
3
Tell Tyre, who dwells at the gateway to the sea, merchant of the peoples on many coasts, that this is what the Lord GOD says: You have said, O Tyre,I am perfect in beauty.’
4
Your borders are in the heart of the seas; your builders perfected your beauty.
5
They constructed all your planking with cypress (a) from Senir.(b) They took a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
6
Of oaks from Bashan they made your oars; of wood from the coasts of Cyprus (c) they made your deck, inlaid with ivory.
7
Of embroidered fine linen from Egypt they made your sail, which served as your banner. Of blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah they made your awning.
8
The men of Sidon and Arvad were your oarsmen. Your men of skill, O Tyre, were there as your captains.
9
The elders of Gebal were aboard as shipwrights, repairing your leaks. All the ships of the sea and their sailors came alongside to barter for your merchandise.
10
Men of Persia, Lydia, and Put served as warriors in your army. They hung their shields and helmets on your walls; they gave you splendor.
11
Men of Arvad and Helech manned your walls all around, and the men of Gammad were in your towers. They hung their shields around your walls; they perfected your beauty.
12
Tarshish was your merchant because of your great wealth of goods; they exchanged silver, iron, tin, and lead for your wares.
13
Javan,(d) Tubal, and Meshech were your merchants. They exchanged slaves and bronze utensils for your merchandise.
14
The men of Beth-togarmah exchanged horses, war horses, and mules for your wares.
15
The men of Dedan (e) were your clients; many coastlands were your market; they paid you with ivory tusks and ebony.
16
Aram (f) was your customer because of your many products; they exchanged turquoise, purple, embroidered work, fine linen, coral, and rubies for your wares.
17
Judah and the land of Israel traded with you; they exchanged wheat from Minnith, cakes and honey, oil and balm for your merchandise.
18
Because of your many products and your great wealth of goods, Damascus traded with you wine from Helbon, wool from Zahar,
19
and casks of wine from Izal for your wares.(g) Wrought iron, cassia, and sweet cane (h) were exchanged for your merchandise.(i)
20
Dedan was your merchant in saddlecloths for riding.
21
Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your customers, trading in lambs, rams, and goats.
22
The merchants of Sheba and Raamah traded with you; for your wares they exchanged gold, the finest of all spices, and precious stones.
23
Haran, Canneh, and Eden traded with you, and so did the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad.
24
In your marketplace they traded with you fine garments of blue, embroidered work, and multicolored rugs with cords tightly twisted and knotted.
25
The ships of Tarshish (j) carried your merchandise. And you were filled with heavy cargo in the heart of the sea.
26
Your oarsmen have brought you onto the high seas, but the east wind will shatter you in the heart of the sea.
27
Your wealth, wares, and merchandise, your sailors, captains, and shipwrights, your merchants and all the warriors within you, with all the other people on board, will sink into the heart of the sea on the day of your downfall.
28
The countryside will shake when your sailors cry out.
29
All who handle the oars will abandon their ships. The sailors and all the captains of the sea will stand on the shore.
30
They will raise their voices for you and cry out bitterly. They will throw dust on their heads and roll in ashes.
31
They will shave their heads for you and wrap themselves in sackcloth. They will weep over you with anguish of soul and bitter mourning.
32
As they wail and mourn over you, they will take up a lament for you:Who was ever like Tyre, silenced in the middle of the sea?
33
When your wares went out to sea, you satisfied many nations. You enriched the kings of the earth with your abundant wealth and merchandise.
34
Now you are shattered by the seas in the depths of the waters; your merchandise and the people among you have gone down with you.
35
All the people of the coastlands are appalled over you. Their kings shudder with fear; their faces are contorted.
36
Those who trade among the nations hiss at you; you have come to a horrible end and will be no more.’”

1
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2
You, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre;
3
and tell Tyre, ‘You who dwell at the entry of the sea, who are the merchant of the peoples to many islands, the Lord GOD says:You, Tyre, have said,I am perfect in beauty.’
4
Your borders are in the heart of the seas. Your builders have perfected your beauty.
5
They have made all your planks of cypress trees from Senir. They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
6
They have made your oars of the oaks of Bashan. They have made your benches of ivory inlaid in cypress wood from the islands of Kittim.
7
Your sail was of fine linen with embroidered work from Egypt, that it might be to you for a banner. Blue and purple from the islands of Elishah was your awning.
8
The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad were your rowers. Your wise men, Tyre, were in you. They were your pilots.
9
The old men of Gebal and its wise men were your repairers of ship seams in you. All the ships of the sea with their mariners were in you to deal in your merchandise.
10
“‘“Persia, Lud, and Put were in your army, your men of war. They hung the shield and helmet in you. They showed your beauty.
11
The men of Arvad with your army were on your walls all around, and valiant men were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around. They have perfected your beauty.
12
“‘“Tarshish was your merchant by reason of the multitude of all kinds of riches. They traded for your wares with silver, iron, tin, and lead.
13

16
“‘“Syria was your merchant by reason of the multitude of your handiworks. They traded for your wares with emeralds, purple, embroidered work, fine linen, coral, and rubies.
17
“‘“Judah and the land of Israel were your traders. They traded wheat of Minnith, confections, honey, oil, and balm for your merchandise.
18
“‘“Damascus was your merchant for the multitude of your handiworks by reason of the multitude of all kinds of riches, with the wine of Helbon, and white wool.
19

20
“‘“Dedan was your merchant in precious saddle blankets for riding.
21
“‘“Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your favorite dealers in lambs, rams, and goats. In these, they were your merchants.
22

23
“‘“Haran, Canneh, Eden, the traders of Sheba, Asshur and Chilmad, were your traders.
24
These were your traders in choice wares, in wrappings of blue and embroidered work, and in cedar chests of rich clothing bound with cords, among your merchandise.
25
“‘“The ships of Tarshish were your caravans for your merchandise. You were replenished and made very glorious in the heart of the seas.
26
Your rowers have brought you into great waters. The east wind has broken you in the heart of the seas.
27
Your riches, your wares, your merchandise, your mariners, your pilots, your repairers of ship seams, the dealers in your merchandise, and all your men of war who are in you, with all your company which is among you, will fall into the heart of the seas in the day of your ruin.
28
At the sound of the cry of your pilots, the pasture lands will shake.
29
All who handle the oars, the mariners and all the pilots of the sea, will come down from their ships. They will stand on the land,
30
and will cause their voice to be heard over you, and will cry bitterly. They will cast up dust on their heads. They will wallow in the ashes.
31
They will make themselves bald for you, and clothe themselves with sackcloth. They will weep for you in bitterness of soul, with bitter mourning.
32
In their wailing they will take up a lamentation for you, and lament over you, saying,Who is there like Tyre, like her who is brought to silence in the middle of the sea?’
33
When your wares came from the seas, you filled many peoples. You enriched the kings of the earth with the multitude of your riches and of your merchandise.
34
In the time that you were broken by the seas, in the depths of the waters, your merchandise and all your company fell within you.
35
All the inhabitants of the islands are astonished at you, and their kings are horribly afraid. They are troubled in their face.
36
The merchants among the peoples hiss at you. You have come to a terrible end, and you will be no more.”’”
