Ezekiel 26:15-18
Amplified Bible
15 Thus says the Lord God to Tyre, “Shall not the coastlands shake at the sound of your fall when the wounded groan, when the slaughter occurs in your midst? 16 Then all the princes of the sea will go down from their thrones and remove their robes and take off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling; they will sit on the ground, tremble again and again, and be appalled at you. 17 They will take up a dirge (funeral poem to be sung) for you and say to you,
‘How you have perished and vanished, O renowned city,
From the seas, O renowned city,
Which was mighty on the sea,
She and her inhabitants,
Who imposed her terror
On all who lived there!
18
‘Now the coastlands will tremble
On the day of your fall;
Yes, the coastlands which are by the sea
Will be terrified at your departure.’”
Ezekiel 26:15-18
New American Standard Bible
15 The Lord God says this to Tyre: “Will the (A)coastlands not (B)shake from the sound of your downfall when the wounded groan, when the slaughter takes place in your midst? 16 Then all the princes of the sea will (C)descend from their thrones, remove their robes, and strip off their colorfully woven garments. They will (D)clothe themselves with [a]trembling; they will sit on the ground, (E)tremble again and again, and be appalled at you. 17 And they will take up a (F)song of mourning over you and say to you,
‘(G)How you have perished, you inhabited one,
From the seas, you famous city,
Which was (H)mighty on the sea,
She and her inhabitants,
Who imposed [b]her terror
On all her inhabitants!
18 Now the (I)coastlands will tremble
On the day of your downfall;
Yes, the coastlands which are by the sea
Will be horrified at your (J)passing.’”
