Context of Ezekiel 27:34
32“‘In their wailing they lament for you, mourning over you: “Who was like Tyre, silenced in the middle of the sea? 33When your merchandise was unloaded from the seas, you satisfied many peoples. You enriched the kings of the earth with your abundant wealth and goods. Now you are wrecked by the sea in the depths of the waters; your goods and the people within you have gone down. 35All the inhabitants of the coasts and islands are appalled at you. Their kings shudder with fear; their faces are contorted. 36Those who trade among the peoples scoff at you; you have become an object of horror and will never exist again.”’”
