Ezekiel 26:3-14

3therefore thus says the Lord 1God, ‘Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and I will bring up 2many nations against you, as the 3sea brings up its waves. 4They will 4destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers; and I will scrape her debris from her and make her a bare rock. 5She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea, for I have spoken,’ declares the Lord God, ‘and she will become 5spoil for the nations. 6Also her 6daughters who are 7on the mainland will be slain by the sword, and they will know that I am the Lord.’”

7For thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I will bring upon Tyre from the north Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, 8king of kings, with horses, 9chariots, cavalry and 10a great army. 8He will slay your daughters 11on the mainland with the sword; and he will make 12siege walls against you, cast up a 13ramp against you and raise up a large shield against you. 9The blow of his battering rams he will direct against your walls, and with his 14axes he will break down your towers. 10Because of the multitude of his 15horses, the dust raised by them will cover you; your walls will 16shake at the noise of cavalry and 17wagons and chariots when he 18enters your gates as men enter a city that is breached. 11With the hoofs of his 19horses he will trample all your streets. He will slay your people with the sword; and your strong pillars will 20come down to the ground. 12Also they will make a spoil of your riches and a prey of your 21merchandise, 22break down your walls and destroy your 23pleasant houses, and 24throw your stones and your timbers and your debris 25into the water. 13So I will 26silence the sound of your 27songs, and the sound of your 28harps will be heard no more. 14I will make you a bare rock; you will be a place for the spreading of nets. You will be 29built no more, for I the 30Lord have spoken,” declares the Lord God.
