31 They will shave themselves bald for your sake,[a]
    and they will dress[b] themselves in sackcloth,
and they will weep[c] over you with a bitterness of soul[d]
    and with bitter wailing.
32 And they will raise[e] over you with their wailing a lament,
    and they will chant[f] a lament over you:
‘Who is like Tyre,
    like this destruction in the midst of the sea?’
33 When your merchandise went out from the seas,
    you satisfied many peoples with the abundance of your wealth,
and by your wares
    you made rich the kings of the world.
