Proclamation Against Tyre

1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, abecause Tyre has said against Jerusalem, b‘Aha! She is broken who was the gateway of the peoples; now she is turned over to me; I shall be filled; she is laid waste.’  
3 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.
4 And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers; I will also scrape her dust from her, and amake her like the top of a rock.  
5 It shall be a place for spreading nets ain the midst of the sea, for I have spoken,’ says the Lord God; ‘it shall become plunder for the nations.  
6 Also her daughter villages which are in the fields shall be slain by the sword. aThen they shall know that I am the Lord.’  
7 “For thus says the Lord God: ‘Behold, I will bring against Tyre from the north aNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, bking of kings, with horses, with chariots, and with horsemen, and an army with many people.  
8 He will slay with the sword your daughter villages in the fields; he will aheap up a siege mound against you, build a wall against you, and raise a1 defense against you.  
9 He will direct his battering rams against your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers.
10 Because of the abundance of his horses, their dust will cover you; your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen, the wagons, and the chariots, when he enters your gates, as men enter a city that has been breached.
11 With the hooves of his ahorses he will trample all your streets; he will slay your people by the sword, and your strong pillars will fall to the ground.  
12 They will plunder your riches and pillage your merchandise; they will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses; they will lay your stones, your timber, and your soil in the amidst of the water.  
13 aI will put an end to the sound of byour songs, and the sound of your harps shall be heard no more.  
14 aI will make you like the top of a rock; you shall be a place for spreading nets, and you shall never be rebuilt, for I the Lord have spoken,’ says the Lord God.
