Context of Ezekiel 27:33
31They will shave themselves bald for you and put on sackcloth. They will weep for you with bitter soul, with bitter lament. 32In their wailing they will take up a lament for you. They will mourn over you: “Who was like Tyre—silenced in the midst of the sea?” When your merchandise came out from the seas, you satisfied many people. With the abundance of your wealth and your wares you enriched the kings of the earth. 34Now you are shattered by the seas in the depths of the waters. Your merchandise and all your company have fallen in your midst. 35All the inhabitants of the coastlands are appalled at you. Their kings are horribly afraid, their faces are convulsed.
