Ezekiel 27:5-7
The Voice
5 Like a great ship they have made you from the finest firs of Senir;
they took a cedar from Lebanon to make you a noble mast.
6 They brought oaks from Bashan and made your oars.
They planked your deck with pines from the coasts of Cyprus
and inlaid it with ivory!
7 Your sail was made of fine linen from Egypt, embroidered by hand;
your blue and purple awning was tinted with dyes imported from the coasts of Elishah.
Ezekiel 27:5-7

they made your oars;
of cypress wood[b] from the coasts of Cyprus(D)
they made your deck, adorned with ivory.

your awnings were of blue and purple(F)
from the coasts of Elishah.(G)
