    Tyre, Sidon, and all the districts of Philistia, what do you have against Me?
        Are you trying to get back at Me?
    Do you pay me back?
        I will turn your wicked actions back upon your heads, fast and sure.
    You have taken wonderful treasures from My house, My silver and gold,
        and you carried them to your own temples and palaces.
    You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks
        to send them far away from their home without hope of return.
