Tyre has built a fortification for itself,[a]
    and it heaped up silver like dust,
    and gold like the mud of the streets.
Look! The Lord will drive it[b] out
    and will hurl its[c] outer ramparts into the sea,
        and it[d] will be consumed by fire.
Ashkelon will see and will be afraid,
    and Gaza will writhe exceedingly,
    and Ekron also, because its hope is ruined.[e]
And the king from Gaza will perish,
    and Ashkelon will not be inhabited.
