Ezekiel 26 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 In the eleventh year of exile, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me. He said,
2 "Son of man, Tyre said bad things about Jerusalem: 'Hurray! The city gate protecting the people is destroyed! The city gate is open for me. The city of Jerusalem is ruined, so I can get plenty of valuable things out of it!'"
3 So the Lord God says: "I am against you, Tyre! I will bring many nations to fight against you. They will come again and again, like waves on the beach.
4 "The enemy soldiers will destroy the walls of Tyre and pull down her towers. I will also scrape the topsoil from her land. I will make Tyre a bare rock.
5 Tyre will become a place by the sea for spreading fishing nets. I have spoken!" The Lord God says, "Tyre will be like the valuable things soldiers take in war.
6 Her daughters on the mainland will be killed in battle. Then they will know that I am the Lord."
7 This is what the Lord God says: "I will bring an enemy from the north against Tyre. That enemy is Nebuchadnezzar, the great king of Babylon! He will bring a very large army. There will be horses, chariots, horse soldiers and many other soldiers. They will be from many different nations.
8 Nebuchadnezzar will kill your daughters on the mainland. He will build towers to attack your city. He will build a dirt road around your city and a dirt road leading up to the walls.
9 He will bring the logs to break down your walls. He will use picks and break down your towers.
10 There will be so many of his horses that the dust from them will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of horse soldiers, wagons, and chariots when the king of Babylon enters the city through your city gates. Yes, they will come into your city because its walls will be pulled down.
11 The king of Babylon will come riding through your city. His horses' hoofs will come pounding over your streets. He will kill your people with swords. The strong columns in your city will fall to the ground.
12 Nebuchadnezzar's men will take away your riches. They will take the things you wanted to sell. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. They will throw the wood and stones into the sea like garbage.
13 So I will stop the sound of your happy songs. People will not hear your harps anymore.
14 I will make you a bare rock. You will be a place by the sea for spreading fishing nets! You will not be rebuilt, because I, the Lord, have spoken!" This is what the Lord God said.
15 This is what the Lord God says to Tyre: "The countries along the Mediterranean coast will shake at the sound of your fall. That will happen when your people are hurt and killed.
16 Then all the leaders of the countries by the sea will step down from their thrones and show their sadness. They will take off their special robes and their beautiful clothes. Then they will put on their 'clothes of shaking.' They will sit on the ground and shake with fear. They will be shocked at how quickly you were destroyed.
17 They will sing this sad song about you: "'Tyre, you were a famous city. People came from across the sea to live in you. You were famous, but now you are gone! You were strong on the sea, and so were the people who lived in you. You made all who live on the mainland afraid of you.
18 Now, on the day you fall, the countries along the coast will shake with fear. You started many colonies along the coast. Now those people will be scared when you are gone!'"
19 This is what the Lord God says: "Tyre, you will become an old, empty city. No one will live there. I will cause the sea to flow over you. The great sea will cover you.
20 I will send you down into that deep hole— to the place of death. You will join those who died long ago. I will send you to the world below, like all the other old, empty cities. You will be with all the others who go down to the grave. No one will live in you then. You will never again be in the land of the living!
21 Other people will be afraid about what happened to you. You will be finished. People will look for you, but they will never find you again." That is what the Lord God says.
1 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS in the eleventh H6249 year H8141 NFS , in the first H259 B-NMS day of the month H2320 LD-NMS , that the word H1697 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 VQQ3MS unto H413 PREP-1MS me , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
2 Son H1121 of man H120 NMS , because that ADV Tyrus H6865 hath said H559 VQQ3FS against H5921 PREP Jerusalem H3389 , Aha H1889 IJEC , she is broken H7665 that was the gates H1817 of the people H5971 : she is turned H5437 unto H413 me : I shall be replenished H4390 , now she is laid waste H2717 :
3 Therefore H3651 L-ADV thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 ; Behold H2009 , I am against H5921 thee , O Tyrus H6865 , and will cause many H7227 AMP nations H1471 NMP to come up H5927 against H5921 thee , as the sea H3220 D-NMS causeth his waves H1530 to come up H5927 .
4 And they shall destroy H7843 the walls H2346 of Tyrus H6865 , and break down H2040 her towers H4026 : I will also scrape H5500 her dust H6083 from H4480 M-PREP-3FS her , and make H5414 her like the top H6706 of a rock H5553 .
5 It shall be H1961 VQY2MS a place for the spreading H4894 of nets H2764 in the midst H8432 B-NMS of the sea H3220 D-NMS : for H3588 CONJ I H589 PPRO-1MS have spoken H1696 it , saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 : and it shall become H1961 W-VQQ3FS a spoil H957 to the nations H1471 .
6 And her daughters H1323 CFP-3FS which H834 RPRO are in the field H7704 B-NMS shall be slain H2026 by the sword H2719 ; and they shall know H3045 that H3588 CONJ I H589 PPRO-1MS am the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
7 For H3588 CONJ thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 ; Behold H2009 , I will bring H935 VHPMS upon H413 PREP Tyrus H6865 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , a king H4428 NMS of kings H4428 NMS , from the north H6828 M-NFS , with horses H5483 , and with chariots H7393 , and with horsemen H6571 , and companies H6951 , and much H7227 AMS people H5971 .
8 He shall slay H2026 with the sword H2719 thy daughters H1323 in the field H7704 B-NMS : and he shall make H5414 W-VQQ3MS a fort H1785 against H5921 thee , and cast H8210 a mount H5550 against H5921 thee , and lift up H6965 the buckler H6793 against H5921 thee .
9 And he shall set H5414 VHFA engines H4239 of war H6904 against thy walls H2346 , and with his axes H2719 he shall break down H5422 thy towers H4026 .
10 By reason of the abundance H8229 of his horses H5483 their dust H80 shall cover H3680 thee : thy walls H2346 shall shake H7493 at the noise H6963 of the horsemen H6571 , and of the wheels H1534 , and of the chariots H7393 , when he shall enter H935 into thy gates H8179 , as men enter into H3996 a city H5892 GFS wherein is made a breach H1234 .
11 With the hooves H6541 of his horses H5483 shall he tread down H7429 all H3605 NMS thy streets H2351 : he shall slay H2026 thy people H5971 by the sword H2719 , and thy strong H5797 garrisons H4676 shall go down H3381 to the ground H776 LD-NFS .
12 And they shall make a spoil H7997 of thy riches H2428 , and make a prey H962 of thy merchandise H7404 : and they shall break down H2040 thy walls H2346 , and destroy H5422 thy pleasant H2532 houses H1004 : and they shall lay H7760 thy stones H68 and thy timber H6086 and thy dust H6083 in the midst H8432 B-NMS of the water H4325 OMD .
13 And I will cause the noise H1995 of thy songs H7892 to cease H7673 ; and the sound H6963 W-CMS of thy harps H3658 shall be no H3808 NADV more H5750 ADV heard H8085 .
14 And I will make H5414 thee like the top H6706 of a rock H5553 NMS : thou shalt be H1961 VQY2MS a place to spread nets upon H4894 ; thou shalt be built H1129 no H3808 NADV more H5750 ADV : for H3588 CONJ I H589 PPRO-1MS the LORD H3068 EDS have spoken H1696 VPQ1MS it , saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 .
15 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 to Tyrus H6865 ; Shall not H3808 I-NADV the isles H339 shake H7493 at the sound H6963 of thy fall H4658 , when the wounded H2491 cry H602 , when the slaughter H2027 is made H2026 in the midst H8432 of thee ?
16 Then all H3605 NMS the princes H5387 of the sea H3220 D-NMS shall come down H3381 from M-PREP their thrones H3678 , and lay away H5493 their robes H4598 , and put off H6584 their embroidered H7553 garments H899 : they shall clothe H3847 themselves with trembling H2731 ; they shall sit H3427 upon H5921 M-PREP the ground H776 D-GFS , and shall tremble H2729 at every moment H7281 L-NMP , and be astonished H8074 at H5921 M-PREP thee .
17 And they shall take up H5375 a lamentation H7015 for H5921 thee , and say H559 W-VQQ3MP to thee , How H349 art thou destroyed H6 , that wast inhabited H3427 of seafaring men H3220 , the renowned H1984 city H5892 D-GFS , which H834 RPRO wast H1961 VQQ3FS strong H2389 in the sea H3220 , she H1931 PPRO-3FS and her inhabitants H3427 , which H834 RPRO cause H5414 their terror H2851 to be on all H3605 L-CMS that haunt H3427 it !
18 Now H6258 ADV shall the isles H339 tremble H2729 in the day H3117 NMS of thy fall H4658 ; yea , the isles H339 that H834 RPRO are in the sea H3220 BD-NMS shall be troubled H926 at thy departure H3318 .
19 For H3588 CONJ thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 ; When I shall make H5414 thee a desolate H2717 city H5892 GFS , like the cities H5892 that H834 RPRO are not H3808 ADV inhabited H3427 ; when I shall bring up H5927 the deep H8415 NMS upon H5921 thee , and great H7227 waters H4325 D-CMS shall cover H3680 thee ;
20 When I shall bring thee down H3381 with H854 PREP them that descend H3381 into the pit H953 , with H413 PREP the people H5971 NMS of old time H5769 NMS , and shall set H3427 thee in the low parts H8482 of the earth H776 B-GFS , in places desolate H2723 of old H5769 , with H854 PREP them that go down H3381 to the pit H953 , that H4616 L-CONJ thou be not H3808 NADV inhabited H3427 ; and I shall set H5414 glory H6643 in the land H776 B-GFS of the living H2416 NMP ;
21 I will make H5414 thee a terror H1091 NFP , and thou shalt be no H369 more : though thou be sought for H1245 , yet shalt thou never H3808 W-NPAR be found H4672 again H5750 ADV , saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 .
