7 Of fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was thy sail, that it might be to thee for an ensign; blue and purple from the isles of Elishah was thine awning. 8 The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad were thy rowers: thy wise men, O Tyre, were in thee, they were thy pilots. 9 The [a]old men 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 [b]deal in thy merchandise.

Ezekiel 27:7-9
New International Version
7 Fine embroidered linen(A) from Egypt was your sail
and served as your banner;
your awnings were of blue and purple(B)
from the coasts of Elishah.(C)
8 Men of Sidon and Arvad(D) were your oarsmen;
your skilled men, Tyre, were aboard as your sailors.(E)
9 Veteran craftsmen of Byblos(F) were on board
as shipwrights to caulk your seams.
All the ships of the sea(G) and their sailors
came alongside to trade for your wares.
