27:8 The leaders of Sidon and Arvad were your rowers ; your skilled men , O Tyre , were your captains .

27:25 The ships of Tarshish were the transports for your merchandise . “‘So you were filled and weighed down in the heart of the seas .
27:26 Your rowers have brought you into surging waters . The east wind has wrecked you in the heart of the seas .
27:27 Your wealth , products , and merchandise , your sailors and captains , your ship’s carpenters , your merchants , and all your fighting men within you, along with all your crew who are in you, will fall into the heart of the seas on the day of your downfall .
27:28 At the sound of your captains ’ cry the waves will surge ;
27:29 They will descend from their ships – all who handle the oar , the sailors and all the sea captains – they will stand on the land .
27:30 They will lament loudly over you and cry bitterly . They will throw dust on their heads and roll in the ashes ;
27:31 they will tear out their hair because of you and put on sackcloth , and they will weep bitterly over you with intense mourning .
27:32 As they wail they will lament over you, chanting : “Who was like Tyre , like a tower in the midst of the sea ?”
27:33 When your products went out from the seas , you satisfied many peoples ; with the abundance of your wealth and merchandise you enriched the kings of the earth .
27:34 Now you are wrecked by the seas , in the depths of the waters ; your merchandise and all your company have sunk along with you.
27:35 All the inhabitants of the coastlands are shocked at you, and their kings are horribly afraid – their faces are troubled .
27:36 The traders among the peoples hiss at you; you have become a horror , and will be no more .’”
