Ezekiel 26:7-12

New International Version

⁷ “For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: From the north I am going to bring against Tyre Nebuchadnezzar^[a](A) king of Babylon, king of kings,^(B) with horses and chariots,^(C) with horsemen and a great army. ⁸ He will ravage your settlements on the mainland with the sword; he will set up siege works^(D) against you, build a ramp^(E) up to your walls and raise his shields against you. ⁹ He will direct the blows of his battering rams against your walls and demolish your towers with his weapons.^{(F) 10} His horses will be so many that they will cover you with dust. Your walls will tremble at the noise of the warhorses, wagons and chariots^(G) when he enters your gates as men enter a city whose walls have been broken through. ¹¹ The hooves^(H) of his horses will trample all your streets; he will kill your people with the sword, and your strong pillars^(I) will fall to the ground.^{(J) 12} They will plunder your wealth and loot your merchandise; they will break down your walls and demolish your fine houses and throw your stones, timber and rubble into the sea.^(K)
