Book 26 : EZEKIEL - Chapter 027
027:001
Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus
027:002
And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of
the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of
perfect beauty
027:003
Thy borders are in the midst of the seas, thy builders have
perfected thy beauty
027:004
They have made all thy ship boards of fir trees of Senir: they
have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee
027:005
Of the oaks of Bashan have they made thine oars; the company
of the Ashurites have made thy benches of ivory, brought out
of the isles of Chittim
027:006
Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was that which thou
spreadest forth to be thy sail; blue and purple from the isles
of Elishah was that which covered thee
027:007
The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy mariners: thy wise
men, O Tyrus, that were in thee, were thy pilots
027:008
The ancients of Gebal and the wise men thereof were in thee
thy calkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were
in thee to occupy thy merchandise
027:009
They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in thine army, thy
men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they
set forth thy comeliness
027:010
The men of Arvad with thine army were upon thy walls round
about, and the Gammadims were in thy towers: they hanged their
shields upon thy walls round about; they have made thy beauty
perfect
027:011
Tarshish was thy merchant by reason of the multitude of all
kind of riches; with silver, iron, tin, and lead, they traded
in thy fairs
027:012
Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they were thy merchants: they
traded the persons of men and vessels of brass in thy market
027:013
They of the house of Togarmah traded in thy fairs with horses
and horsemen and mules
027:014
The men of Dedan were thy merchants; many isles were the
merchandise of thine hand: they brought thee for a present
horns of ivory and ebony
027:015
Syria was thy merchant by reason of the multitude of the wares
of thy making: they occupied in thy fairs with emeralds,
purple, and broidered work, and fine linen, and coral, and
agate
027:016
Judah, and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants: they
traded in thy market wheat of Minnith, and Pannag, and honey,
and oil, and balm
027:017
Damascus was thy merchant in the multitude of the wares of thy
making, for the multitude of all riches; in the wine of
Helbon, and white wool
027:018
Dan also and Javan going to and fro occupied in thy fairs:
bright iron, cassia, and calamus, were in thy market
027:019
Dedan was thy merchant in precious clothes for chariots
027:020
Arabia, and all the princes of Kedar, they occupied with thee
in lambs, and rams, and goats: in these were they thy
merchants
027:021
The merchants of Sheba and Raamah, they were thy merchants:
they occupied in thy fairs with chief of all spices, and with
all precious stones, and gold
027:022
Haran, and Canneh, and Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur,
and Chilmad, were thy merchants
027:023
These were thy merchants in all sorts of things, in blue
clothes, and broidered work, and in chests of rich apparel,
bound with cords, and made of cedar, among thy merchandise
027:024
The ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market: and thou
wast replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the
seas
027:025
Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters: the east wind
hath broken thee in the midst of the seas
027:026
Thy riches, and thy fairs, thy merchandise, thy mariners, and
thy pilots, thy calkers, and the occupiers of thy merchandise,
and all thy men of war, that are in thee, and in all thy
company which is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the
midst of the seas in the day of thy ruin
027:027
The suburbs shall shake at the sound of the cry of thy pilots
027:028
And all that handle the oar, the mariners, and all the pilots
of the sea, shall come down from their ships, they shall stand
upon the land
027:029
And shall cause their voice to be heard against thee, and
shall cry bitterly, and shall cast up dust upon their heads,
they shall wallow themselves in the ashes
027:030
And they shall make themselves utterly bald for thee, and gird
them with sackcloth, and they shall weep for thee with
bitterness of heart and bitter wailing
027:031
And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for
thee, and lament over thee, saying, What city is like Tyrus,
like the destroyed in the midst of the sea
027:032
When thy wares went forth out of the seas, thou filledst many
people; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the
multitude of thy riches and of thy merchandise
027:033
In the time when thou shalt be broken by the seas in the
depths of the waters thy merchandise and all thy company in
the midst of thee shall fall
027:034
All the inhabitants of the isles shall be astonished at thee,
and their kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled
in their countenance
027:035
The merchants among the people shall hiss at thee; thou shalt
be a terror, and never shalt be any more
