Ezekiel 27:5-11

5They have 1made all your planks of fir trees from 2Senir; They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.6Of 3oaks from 4Bashan they have made your oars; With ivory they have 5inlaid your deck of boxwood from the coastlands of 6Cyprus.7Your sail was of fine embroidered linen from Egypt So that it became your 7distinguishing mark; Your 8awning was 9 10blue and purple from the coastlands of 11Elishah.8The inhabitants of Sidon and 12Arvad were your rowers; Your 13wise men, O Tyre, were 14aboard; they were your pilots.9The elders of 15Gebal and her wise men were with you repairing your seams; All the ships of the sea and their sailors were with you in order to deal in your merchandise.

10“16Persia and 17Lud and 18Put were in your army, your men of war. They hung shield and helmet in you; they set forth your splendor. 11The sons of Arvad and your army were on your walls, all around, and the 19Gammadim were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around; they perfected your beauty.
