¹² How you are fallen from heaven,
    O Morning Star, son of Dawn!
How you are cut down to the ground,
    you who laid the nations low!^(B)
13 You said to yourself,
    “I will ascend to heaven;
I will raise my throne
    above the stars of God;
I will sit on the mount of assembly
    on the heights of Zaphon;^[a](C)
14 I will ascend to the tops of the clouds;
    I will make myself like the Most High.”^(D)
15 But you are brought down to Sheol,
    to the depths of the Pit.^(E)
16 Those who see you will stare at you
    and ponder over you:
“Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
    who shook kingdoms,^(F)

So you were filled and heavily laden
    in the heart of the seas.^(E)
26 Your rowers have brought you
    into the high seas.
The east wind has wrecked you
    in the heart of the seas.^(F)
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.^(G)
28 At the sound of the cry of your pilots
    the pasturelands shake,^(H)
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^(I)
30 and wail aloud over you
    and cry bitterly.
They throw dust on their heads
    and wallow in ashes;^(J)
31 they make themselves bald for you
    and put on sackcloth,
and they weep over you in bitterness of soul,
    with bitter mourning.^(K)
32 In their wailing they raise a lamentation for you
    and lament over you:
“Who was ever destroyed^[c] like Tyre
    in the midst of the sea?^(L)
