    and on Tyre(B) and Sidon,(C) though they are very skillful.
Tyre has built herself a stronghold;
    she has heaped up silver like dust,
    and gold like the dirt of the streets.(D)
But the Lord will take away her possessions
    and destroy(E) her power on the sea,
    and she will be consumed by fire.(F)

The Lord speaks against the country called Hamath. (It is next to the country called Hadrach.) The people in Tyre and Sidon cities are very wise. But the Lord also speaks against them.

Tyre's people have built strong walls to keep enemies out.

They have swept up rich metals like dirt.

They have swept up gold like dirt in the streets.

And he will remove their ships from the sea.

Fire will burn every part of the city.
