Ezekiel 27:3-11
3and say to Tyre, 1who sits at the 2entrance to the sea, 3merchant of the peoples to many coastlands, ‘This is what the Lord 4God 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 5made all your planks of juniper trees from 6Senir; They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.6Of 7oaks from 8Bashan they have made your rudders; With ivory they have 9inlaid your deck of boxwood from the coastlands of 10Cyprus.7Your sail was of colorfully embroidered linen from Egypt So that it became your flag; Your 11awning was 12violet and purple from the coastlands of 13Elishah.8The inhabitants of Sidon and 14Arvad were your rowers; Your 15wise men, Tyre, were 16aboard; they were your sailors.9The elders of 17Gebal and her wise men were with you repairing your leaks; All the ships of the sea and their sailors were with you in order to deal in your merchandise.
10“18Persia, 19Lud, and 20Put were in your army, your men of war. They hung up shield and helmet on you; they presented your splendor. 11The sons of Arvad and your army were on your walls, all around, and the 21Gammadim were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around; they perfected your beauty.
