Ezekiel 27:21-36

21ArabiaH6152 and allH3605 the princesH5387 of KedarH6938H1992 were your customersH5503H3027, tradingH5503 in lambsH3733, ramsH352, and goatsH6260. 22The merchantsH7402 of ShebaH7614 and RaamahH7484H1992 traded with youH7402; for your waresH5801 they exchangedH5414 goldH2091, the finestH7218 of allH3605 spicesH1314, andH3605 preciousH3368 stonesH68. 23HaranH2771, CannehH3656, and EdenH5729 traded with youH7402, and so did the merchantsH7402 of ShebaH7614, AsshurH804, and ChilmadH3638. 24In your marketplaceH4819 theyH1992 tradedH7402 with you fineH4360 garmentsH1545 of blueH8504, embroidered workH7553, and multicoloredH1264 rugsH1595 with cordsH2256 tightly twistedH2280 and knottedH729.

25The shipsH591 of TarshishH86591carriedH7788 your merchandiseH4627.And you were filledH4390 with heavy cargoH3513H3966in the heartH3820 of the seaH3220.26Your oarsmenH7751 have brought youH935onto the highH7227 seasH4325,but the eastH6921 windH7307 will shatter youH7665in the heartH3820 of the seaH3220.27Your wealthH1952, waresH5801, and merchandiseH4627,your sailorsH4419, captainsH2259, and shipwrightsH2388H919,your merchantsH6148H4627 and allH3605 the warriorsH582H4421 within you,with allH3605 the other people on boardH6951,will sinkH5307 into the heartH3820 of the seaH3220on the dayH3117 of your downfallH4658.
28The countrysideH4054 will shakeH7493when your sailorsH2259 cry outH6963H2201.29AllH3605 who handleH8610 the oarsH4880will abandonH3381 their shipsH591.The sailorsH4419 and allH3605 the captainsH2259 of the seaH3220will standH5975 onH413 the shoreH776.30They will raiseH8085 their voicesH6963 for youH5921and cry outH2199 bitterlyH4751.They will throwH5927 dustH6083 onH5921 their headsH7218and rollH6428 in ashesH665.31They will shave their headsH7139H7144 for youH413and wrap themselves inH2296 sackclothH8242.They will weepH1058 over youH413with anguishH4751 of soulH5315 and bitterH4751 mourningH4553.
32As they wailH5204 and mournH6969 over youH5921,they will take upH5375 a lamentH7015 for youH413:
‘WhoH4310 was ever like TyreH6865,silencedH1822 in the middleH8432 of the seaH3220?33When your waresH5801 went outH3318 to seaH3220,you satisfiedH7646 manyH7227 nationsH5971.You enrichedH6238 the kingsH4428 of the earthH776with your abundantH7230 wealthH1952 and merchandiseH4627.34NowH6256 you are shatteredH7665 by the seasH3220in the depthsH4615 of the watersH4325;your merchandiseH4627H3605 and the peopleH6951 among youH8432have gone down with youH5307.35AllH3605 the peopleH3427 of the coastlandsH339are appalledH8074 over youH5921.Their kingsH4428 shudder with fearH8175H8178;their facesH6440 are contortedH7481.36Those who tradeH5503 among the nationsH5971hissH8319 at youH5921;you have comeH1961 to a horrible endH1091and will be no moreH369H5704H5769.’”
