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.
