Ezekiel 27:6-8

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁶ Of oaks of Bashan
    they made your oars;
they made your deck of pines
    from the coasts of Cyprus,
    inlaid with ivory.
⁷ Of fine embroidered linen from Egypt
    was your sail,
    serving as your ensign;
blue and purple from the coasts of Eli′shah
    was your awning.
⁸ The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad
    were your rowers;
skilled men of Zemer^[a] were in you,
    they were your pilots.
