Ezekiel 26:10-18

English Standard Version

¹⁰His horses will be so many that their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen and wagons and chariots, when he enters your gates as men enter a city that has been breached. ¹¹With the hoofs of his horses he will trample all your streets. He will kill your people with the sword, and your mighty pillars will fall to the ground. ¹²They will plunder ^(A)your riches and loot ^(B)your merchandise. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. Your stones and timber and ^(C)soil they will cast into the midst of the waters. ¹³^(D)And I will stop the music of your songs, and ^(E)the sound of your lyres shall be heard no more. ¹⁴^(F)I will make you a bare rock. ^(G)You shall be a place for the spreading of nets. You shall never be rebuilt, ^(H)for I am the Lord; I have spoken, declares the Lord God.

¹⁵“Thus says the Lord God to Tyre: Will not ^(I)the coastlands shake at the sound of your fall, ^(J)when the wounded groan, when slaughter is made in your midst? ¹⁶Then all ^(K)the princes of the sea will step down from their thrones and ^(L)remove their robes and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling; ^(M)they will sit on the ground and ^(N)tremble every moment and ^(O)be appalled at you. ¹⁷And they will ^(P)raise a lamentation over you and say to you,

“‘How you have perished,
    you who were inhabited from the seas,
O city renowned,
    ^(Q)who was mighty on the sea;
she and her inhabitants ^(R)imposed their terror
    on all her inhabitants!
¹⁸Now the coastlands tremble
    on the day of your fall,
and the coastlands that are on the sea
    are dismayed at your passing.’
