Ezekiel 26:15-21

Lord YAHWEH says to Tyre: “Surely, the islands will quake with fear at the sound of your fall. They will hear the groan of your wounded when your slaughter takes place. All the princes of the sea will vacate their thrones, laying aside their regal robes and embroidered cloaks. They will clothe themselves with trembling as they sit on the ground, stunned at your fate. This is the funeral song they will sing over you: “ ‘How you have vanished from the seas, O famous city, once a sea power with many people! You inspired great terror in all those who lived in her. Now, on the day of your fall, the islands and coasts are trembling with fear. They are paralyzed with great fear, because Tyre has vanished completely!’ ” Lord YAHWEH says: “When I make you a place of ruins like other deserted cities and I raise the deep to sweep over you and the ocean depths to cover you, then I will fling you down to the world of the dead to join the people of long ago. I will make you dwell deep in the underworld, in the abyss. And like the ruins of long ago, you will sink with them into oblivion. I will make sure that no one will ever live in you again, nor will you take your place in the land of the living. I will bring you to a dreadful, terrifying end, and you will be no more! People will look for you but never find you again. I, Lord YAHWEH, have spoken.”
