3 and say to Tyre, (A)who sits at the [a]entrance to the sea, (B)merchant of the peoples to many coastlands, ‘This is what the Lord [b]God says:
“Tyre, you have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’
4 Your borders are in the heart of the seas;
Your builders have perfected your beauty.
5 They have [c]made all your planks of juniper trees from (C)Senir;
They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
6 Of (D)oaks from (E)Bashan they have made your rudders;
With ivory they have [d]inlaid your deck of boxwood from the coastlands of (F)Cyprus.
7 Your sail was of colorfully embroidered linen from Egypt
So that it became your flag;
Your [e]awning was (G)violet and purple from the coastlands of (H)Elishah.
8 The inhabitants of Sidon and (I)Arvad were your rowers;
Your (J)wise men, Tyre, were [f]aboard; they were your sailors.
9 The elders of (K)Gebal and her wise men were with you repairing your leaks;
All the ships of the sea and their sailors were with you in order to deal in your merchandise.
10 “(L)Persia, (M)Lud, and (N)Put were in your army, your men of war. They hung up shield and helmet on you; they presented your splendor. 11 The sons of Arvad and your army were on your walls, all around, and the [g]Gammadim were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around; they perfected your beauty.
12 “Tarshish was your customer because of the abundance of all kinds of wealth; with silver, iron, tin, and lead they paid for your merchandise. 13 (O)Javan, (P)Tubal, and (Q)Meshech, they were your traders; with human (R)lives and vessels of bronze they paid for your merchandise. 14 Those from (S)Beth-togarmah gave horses, war horses, and mules for your merchandise. 15 The sons of (T)Dedan were your traders. Many coastlands were [h]your market; they brought (U)ivory tusks and ebony as your payment. 16 (V)Aram was your customer because of the abundance of your [i]goods; they paid for your merchandise with [j](W)emeralds, purple, (X)colorfully woven cloth, fine linen, coral, and rubies. 17 Judah and the land of Israel, they were your traders; with the wheat of (Y)Minnith, [k]cakes, honey, oil, and balsam they paid for your merchandise. 18 (Z)Damascus was your customer because of the abundance of your [l]goods, because of the abundance of all kinds of wealth, because of the wine of Helbon and white wool. 19 Vedan and Javan paid for your merchandise from Uzal; wrought iron, cassia, and spice reed were among your merchandise. 20 (AA)Dedan traded with you in saddlecloths for riding. 21 (AB)Arabia and all the princes of Kedar, they were [m]your customers for (AC)lambs, rams, and goats; for these they were your customers. 22 The traders of (AD)Sheba and Raamah, they traded with you; they paid for your merchandise with the best of all (AE)balsam oil, and with all kinds of precious stones, and gold. 23 Haran, Canneh, (AF)Eden, the traders of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad traded with you. 24 They traded with you in choice garments, in clothes of violet and colorfully woven cloth, and in blankets of two colors, and tightly wound cords, which were among your merchandise. 25 The (AG)ships of Tarshish were [n]the carriers for your merchandise.
And you were filled and were very [o]glorious
In the heart of the seas.
26 “Your rowers have brought you
Into (AH)great waters;
The (AI)east wind has broken you
In the heart of the seas.
27 Your wealth, your wares, your merchandise,
Your seamen and your sailors,
Your repairers of leaks, your dealers in merchandise,
And all your men of war who are in you,
With all your contingent that is in your midst,
Will fall into the heart of the seas
On the day of your overthrow.
