Ezekiel 27:3-11

3and sayH559 unto TyreH6865: O thou that art situate at the entries of the seaH3220, and traffickest with the peoplesH5971 in manyH7227 isles, thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: Thou, TyreH6865, hast saidH559, I am perfectH3632 in beautyH3308.

4Thy bordersH1366 are in the heartH3820 of the seasH3220, thy buildersH1129 have perfectedH3634 thy beautyH3308.

5They madeH6213 all thy double boards of cypress-trees of SenirH8149; they tookH3947 cedarsH730 from LebanonH3844 to makeH6213 masts for thee.

6Of the oaksH437 of BashanH1316 did they makeH6213 thine oars; they madeH6213 thy benches of ivoryH8127, inlaid in box-wood, out of the isles of Chittim.

7Byssus with broidered work from EgyptH4714 wasH1961 thy sailH5251, to serve thee for a banner; blueH8504 and purpleH713 from the isles of ElishahH473 wasH1961 thine awning.

8The inhabitantsH3427 of Zidon and ArvadH719 wereH1961 thy rowers; thy wiseH2450 men, O TyreH6865, who wereH1961 in thee, wereH1961 thy pilots.

9The eldersH2205 of Gebal and the wiseH2450 men thereof wereH1961 in thee repairingH2388 thy leaks; all the shipsH591 of the seaH3220 with their mariners wereH1961 in thee, to barter with thee.

10PersiaH6539 and LudH3865 and Phut wereH1961 in thine armyH2428, thy menH376 of warH4421: they hangedH8518 shieldH4043 and helmetH3553 in thee; they gaveH5414 splendour to thee.

11The children of ArvadH719 with thine armyH2428 wereH1961 upon thy wallsH2346 roundH5439 about, and the Gammadim wereH1961 on thy towersH4026: they hangedH8518 their shieldsH7982 upon thy wallsH2346 roundH5439 about; they made thy beautyH3308 perfect.
