Tyre has built a rampart for herself
    and stored up silver like it were dust,
    and even gold like it were mud in the streets.
The Lord will dispossess her of her possessions
    and strike down her power in the sea,
    and she will be devoured with fire.
Ashkelon will observe this and fear;
    Gaza as well and will writhe in anguish;
    even Ekron, her hope will be confounded.
The king of Gaza will perish,
    and no one will inhabit Ashkelon.

    Gaza will writhe in agony,
    and Ekron too, for her hope will wither.
Gaza will lose her king
    and Ashkelon will be deserted.
