Ezekiel 27:2

Lamentation for Tyre

1 The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

2 “Now, son of man, ^atake up a lamentation for Tyre,

3 and say to Tyre, ^a‘You who are situated at the entrance of the sea, ^bmerchant of the peoples on many coastlands, thus says the Lord God:
“O Tyre, you have said,
^c‘I am perfect in beauty.’

4 Your borders are in the midst of the seas.
Your builders have perfected your beauty.

Ezekiel 27:2

Take up a lamentation for Tyrus - This is a singular and curious chapter. It gives a very circumstantial account of the trade of Tyre with different parts of the world, and the different sorts of merchandise in which she trafficked. The places and the imports are as regularly entered here as they could have been in a European custom-house.
