Ezekiel 27:1-7

1Moreover, the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 2“And you, son of man, 1take up a song of mourning over Tyre; 3and say to Tyre, 2who sits at the 3entrance to the sea, 4merchant of the peoples to many coastlands, ‘This is what the Lord 5God says: “Tyre, you have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’4Your borders are in the heart of the seas; Your builders have perfected your beauty.5They have 6made all your planks of juniper trees from 7Senir; They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.6Of 8oaks from 9Bashan they have made your rudders; With ivory they have 10inlaid your deck of boxwood from the coastlands of 11Cyprus.7Your sail was of colorfully embroidered linen from Egypt So that it became your flag; Your 12awning was 13violet and purple from the coastlands of 14Elishah.
