27Your riches, your wares, your merchandise, your mariners and your pilots, your caulkers, your dealers in merchandise, and all your men of war who are in you, with all your crew that is in your midst, sink into the heart of the seas on the day of your fall.

28At the sound of the cry of your pilots the countryside shakes,

29and down from their ships come all who handle the oar. The mariners and all the pilots of the sea stand on the land

32In their wailing they raise a lamentation for you and lament over you: 'Who is like Tyre, like one destroyed in the midst of the sea?
