Context of Ezekiel 27:35

33The merchandise you traded satisfied the desires of many nations. Kings at the ends of the earth were enriched by your trade. 34Now you are a wrecked ship, broken at the bottom of the sea. All your merchandise and crew have gone down with you. All who live along the coastlands are appalled at your terrible fate. Their kings are filled with horror and look on with twisted faces. 36The merchants among the nations shake their heads at the sight of you, for you have come to a horrible end and will exist no more.’”

Both end with the same message: Tyre has come to a terrible end and will exist no more (compare Ezekiel 26:21).Read the comment
