And it came to pass in the eleventh
year,
in the first
day of the month,
that the word
of the LORD
came unto me, saying,
Son
of man,
because that Tyrus
hath said
against Jerusalem,
Aha,
she is broken
that was the gates
of the people:
she is turned
unto me: I shall be replenished,
now she is laid waste:
Therefore thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus,
and will cause many
nations
to come up
against thee, as the sea
causeth his waves
to come up.
And they shall destroy
the walls
of Tyrus,
and break down
her towers:
I will also scrape
her dust
from her, and make
her like the top
of a rock.

It shall be a place for the spreading
of nets
in the midst
of the sea:
for I have spoken
it, saith
the Lord
GOD:
and it shall become a spoil
to the nations.
And her daughters
which are in the field
shall be slain
by the sword;
and they shall know
that I am the LORD.
For thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Behold, I will bring
upon Tyrus
Nebuchadrezzar
king
of Babylon,
a king
of kings,
from the north,
with horses,
and with chariots,
and with horsemen,
and companies,
and much
people.

And he shall set

and with his axes
he shall break down

By reason of the abundance
of his horses
their dust
shall cover
thee: thy walls
shall shake
at the noise
of the horsemen,
and of the wheels,
and of the chariots,
when he shall enter
into thy gates,
as men enter
into a city
wherein is made a breach.

And I will cause the noise

and the sound

And I will make
thee like the top
of a rock:
thou shalt be a place to spread
nets
upon;
thou shalt be built
no more: for I the LORD
have spoken
it, saith
the Lord
GOD.
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD
to Tyrus;
Shall not the isles
shake
at the sound
of thy fall,
when the wounded

when the slaughter
is made
in the midst
of thee?

which cause
their terror
to be on all that haunt
it!

Now shall the isles
tremble

yea, the isles
that are in the sea
shall be troubled
at thy departure.
For thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
When I shall make
thee a desolate
city,
like the cities
that are not inhabited;
when I shall bring up
the deep
upon thee, and great
waters
shall cover
thee;
When I shall bring thee down
with them that descend
into the pit,
with the people
of old time,
and shall set
thee in the low parts
of the earth,
in places desolate
of old,
with them that go down
to the pit,
that thou be not inhabited;
and I shall set

of the living;
