Ezekiel 26:5-14

5She will becomeH1961 a placeH8432 to spreadH4894 netsH2764 in the seaH3220, forH3588 IH589 have spokenH1696, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. She will becomeH1961 plunderH957 for the nationsH1471, 6and the villagesH1323 on her mainlandH7704 will be slainH2026 by the swordH2719. Then they will knowH3045 thatH3588 IH589 am the LORDH3068.’

7ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559: ‘BeholdH2005, I will bringH935 againstH413 TyreH6865 from the northH6828 NebuchadnezzarH50191 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, kingH4428 of kingsH4428, with horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393, with cavalryH6571 and a greatH7227 companyH6951 of troopsH5971. 8He will slaughterH2026 the villagesH1323 of your mainlandH7704 with the swordH2719; he will set upH5414 siege worksH1785 against youH5921, buildH8210 a ramp to your wallsH5550H5921, and raiseH6965 his shieldsH6793 against youH5921. 9He will directH5414 the blowsH4239 of his battering ramsH6904 against your wallsH2346 and tear downH5422 your towersH4026 with his axesH2719. 10His multitudeH8229 of horsesH5483 will cover youH3680 in their dustH80.

When he entersH935 your gatesH8179 as an army enteringH3996 a breachedH1234 cityH5892, your wallsH2346 will shakeH7493 from the noiseH6963 of cavalryH6571, wagonsH1534, and chariotsH7393. 11The hoovesH6541 of his horsesH5483 will trampleH7429 allH3605 your streetsH2351. He will slaughterH2026 your peopleH5971 with the swordH2719, and your mightyH5797 pillarsH4676 will fallH3381 to the groundH776. 12They will plunderH7997 your wealthH2428 and pillageH962 your merchandiseH7404. They will demolishH2040 your wallsH2346, tear downH5422 your beautifulH2532 homesH1004, and throwH7760 your stonesH68 and timberH6086 and soilH6083 intoH8432 the waterH4325.

13So I will silenceH7673 the soundH1995 of your songsH7892, and the musicH6963 of your lyresH3658 will noH3808 longerH5750 be heardH8085. 14I will make youH5414 a bareH6706 rockH5553, and you will becomeH1961 a place to spreadH4894 the fishing netsH2764. You will neverH3808H5750 be rebuiltH1129, forH3588 IH589, the LORDH3069, have spokenH1696, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3068.’
