So you were filled and heavily laden
in the heart of the seas.(K)
26 Your rowers have brought you
into the high seas.
The east wind has wrecked you
in the heart of the seas.(L)
27 Your riches, your wares, your merchandise,
your sailors and your pilots,
your caulkers, your dealers in merchandise,
and all your warriors within you,
with all the company
that is with you,
sink into the heart of the seas
on the day of your ruin.(M)
28 At the sound of the cry of your pilots
the pasturelands shake,(N)
29 and down from their ships
come all who handle the oar.
The sailors and all the pilots of the sea
stand on the shore(O)
30 and wail aloud over you
and cry bitterly.
They throw dust on their heads
and wallow in ashes;(P)
31 they make themselves bald for you
and put on sackcloth,
and they weep over you in bitterness of soul,
with bitter mourning.(Q)
32 In their wailing they raise a lamentation for you
and lament over you:
“Who was ever destroyed[f] like Tyre
in the midst of the sea?(R)
33 When your wares came from the seas,
you satisfied many peoples;
with your abundant wealth and merchandise
you enriched the kings of the earth.(S)
34 Now you are wrecked by the seas,
in the depths of the waters;
your merchandise and all your crew
have sunk with you.(T)
35 All the inhabitants of the coastlands
are appalled at you,
and their kings are horribly afraid;
their faces are convulsed.(U)
36 The merchants among the peoples hiss at you;
you have come to a dreadful end
and shall be no more forever.”(V)

“I am perfect in beauty.”(A)
Isaiah 23:3-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 and were on the mighty waters;
your revenue[a] was the grain of Shihor,
the harvest of the Nile;
you were the merchant of the nations.(A)
4 Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea has spoken,
the fortress of the sea, saying:
“I have neither labored nor given birth;
I have neither reared young men
nor brought up young women.”(B)
5 When the report comes to Egypt,
they will be in anguish over the report about Tyre.
6 Cross over to Tarshish—
wail, O inhabitants of the coast!
7 Is this your exultant city
whose origin is from days of old,
whose feet carried her
to settle far away?(C)
8 Who has planned this
against Tyre, the bestower of crowns,
whose merchants were princes,
whose traders were the honored of the earth?
