Ezekiel 27:3-7
New International Version
3 Say to Tyre,(A) situated at the gateway to the sea,(B) merchant of peoples on many coasts, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘You say, Tyre,
“I am perfect in beauty.(C)”
4 Your domain was on the high seas;
your builders brought your beauty to perfection.(D)
5 They made all your timbers
of juniper from Senir[a];(E)
they took a cedar from Lebanon(F)
to make a mast for you.
6 Of oaks(G) from Bashan
they made your oars;
of cypress wood[b] from the coasts of Cyprus(H)
they made your deck, adorned with ivory.
7 Fine embroidered linen(I) from Egypt was your sail
and served as your banner;
your awnings were of blue and purple(J)
from the coasts of Elishah.(K)
