Ezekiel 26:1-6

English Standard Version

Prophecy Against Tyre

26 ^(A)In the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me: ^2 (B)“Son of man, because ^(C)Tyre said concerning Jerusalem, ^(D)‘Aha, the gate of the peoples is broken; it has swung open to me. I shall be replenished, now that she is laid waste,’ ³ therefore thus says the Lord God: ^(E)Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and will bring up ^(F)many nations against you, ^(G)as the sea brings up its waves. ⁴ They shall destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers, and I will scrape her soil from her and ^(H)make her a bare rock. ⁵ She ^(I)shall be in the midst of the sea a place for the spreading of nets, ^(J)for I have spoken, declares the Lord God. And she shall become plunder for the nations, ⁶ and her daughters on the mainland shall be killed by the sword. ^(K)Then they will know that I am the Lord.
