Ezekiel 26:1 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 On February 3, during the twelfth year of King Jehoiachin's captivity, this message came to me from the LORD:
2 "Son of man, Tyre has rejoiced over the fall of Jerusalem, saying, 'Ha! She who was the gateway to the rich trade routes to the east has been broken, and I am the heir! Because she has been made desolate, I will become wealthy!'
3 "Therefore, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am your enemy, O Tyre, and I will bring many nations against you, like the waves of the sea crashing against your shoreline.
4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre and tear down its towers. I will scrape away its soil and make it a bare rock!
5 It will be just a rock in the sea, a place for fishermen to spread their nets, for I have spoken, says the Sovereign LORD. Tyre will become the prey of many nations,
6 and its mainland villages will be destroyed by the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
7 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: From the north I will bring King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon against Tyre. He is king of kings and brings his horses, chariots, charioteers, and great army.
8 First he will destroy your mainland villages. Then he will attack you by building a siege wall, constructing a ramp, and raising a roof of shields against you.
9 He will pound your walls with battering rams and demolish your towers with sledgehammers.
10 The hooves of his horses will choke the city with dust, and the noise of the charioteers and chariot wheels will shake your walls as they storm through your broken gates.
11 His horsemen will trample through every street in the city. They will butcher your people, and your strong pillars will topple.
12 "They will plunder all your riches and merchandise and break down your walls. They will destroy your lovely homes and dump your stones and timbers and even your dust into the sea.
13 I will stop the music of your songs. No more will the sound of harps be heard among your people.
14 I will make your island a bare rock, a place for fishermen to spread their nets. You will never be rebuilt, for I, the LORD, have spoken. Yes, the Sovereign LORD has spoken!
15 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says to Tyre: The whole coastline will tremble at the sound of your fall, as the screams of the wounded echo in the continuing slaughter.
16 All the seaport rulers will step down from their thrones and take off their royal robes and beautiful clothing. They will sit on the ground trembling with horror at your destruction.
17 Then they will wail for you, singing this funeral song: "O famous island city, once ruler of the sea, how you have been destroyed! Your people, with their naval power, once spread fear around the world.
18 Now the coastlands tremble at your fall. The islands are dismayed as you disappear.
19 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will make Tyre an uninhabited ruin, like many others. I will bury you beneath the terrible waves of enemy attack. Great seas will swallow you.
20 I will send you to the pit to join those who descended there long ago. Your city will lie in ruins, buried beneath the earth, like those in the pit who have entered the world of the dead. You will have no place of respect here in the land of the living.
21 I will bring you to a terrible end, and you will exist no more. You will be looked for, but you will never again be found. I, the Sovereign LORD, have spoken!"
1 And it came to pass H1961 in the eleventh H6249 H6240 year, H8141 in the first H259 day of the month, H2320 that the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 me, saying, H559
2 Son H1121 of man, H120 because that H3282 H834 Tyrus H6865 hath said H559 against H5921 Jerusalem, H3389 Aha, H1889 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 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Behold, H2009 I am against H5921 thee , O Tyrus, H6865 and will cause many H7227 nations H1471 to come up H5927 against H5921 thee , as the sea H3220 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 her , and make H5414 her like the top H6706 of a rock. H5553
5 It shall be H1961 a place for the spreading H4894 of nets H2764 in the midst H8432 of the sea: H3220 for H3588 I H589 have spoken H1696 it , saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD: H3069 and it shall become H1961 a spoil H957 to the nations. H1471
6 And her daughters H1323 which H834 are in the field H7704 shall be slain H2026 by the sword; H2719 and they shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD. H3068
7 For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Behold, H2009 I will bring H935 upon H413 Tyrus H6865 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon, H894 a king H4428 of kings, H4428 from the north H4480 H6828 , with horses, H5483 and with chariots, H7393 and with horsemen, H6571 and companies, H6951 and much H7227 people. H5971
8 He shall slay H2026 with the sword H2719 thy daughters H1323 in the field: H7704 and he shall make H5414 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 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 H4480 H8229 of his horses H5483 their dust H80 shall cover H3680 thee : thy walls H2346 shall shake H7493 at the noise H4480 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 wherein is made a breach. H1234
11 With the hooves H6541 of his horses H5483 shall he tread down H7429 H853 all H3605 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
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 of the water. H4325
13 And I will cause the noise H1995 of thy songs H7892 to cease; H7673 and the sound H6963 of thy harps H3658 shall be no H3808 more H5750 heard. H8085
14 And I will make H5414 thee like the top H6706 of a rock: H5553 thou shalt be H1961 a place to spread nets upon H4894 H2764 ; thou shalt be built H1129 no H3808 more: H5750 for H3588 I H589 the LORD H3068 have spoken H1696 it , saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD. H3069
15 Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 to Tyrus; H6865 Shall not H3808 the isles H339 shake H7493 at the sound H4480 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 the princes H5387 of the sea H3220 shall come down H3381 from H4480 H5921 their thrones, H3678 and lay away H5493 H853 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 the ground, H776 and shall tremble H2729 at every moment, H7281 and be astonished H8074 at H5921 thee.
17 And they shall take up H5375 a lamentation H7015 for H5921 thee , and say H559 to thee, How H349 art thou destroyed, H6 that wast inhabited H3427 of seafaring men H4480 H3220 , the renowned H1984 city, H5892 which H834 wast H1961 strong H2389 in the sea, H3220 she H1931 and her inhabitants, H3427 which H834 cause H5414 their terror H2851 to be on all H3605 that haunt H3427 it!
18 Now H6258 shall the isles H339 tremble H2729 in the day H3117 of thy fall; H4658 yea , the isles H339 that H834 are in the sea H3220 shall be troubled H926 at thy departure H4480 H3318 .
19 For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 When I shall make H5414 thee a desolate H2717 city, H5892 like the cities H5892 that H834 are not H3808 inhabited; H3427 when I shall bring up H5927 H853 the deep H8415 upon H5921 thee , and great H7227 waters H4325 shall cover H3680 thee;
20 When I shall bring thee down H3381 with H854 them that descend H3381 into the pit, H953 with H413 the people H5971 of old time, H5769 and shall set H3427 thee in the low parts H8482 of the earth, H776 in places desolate H2723 of old H4480 H5769 , with H854 them that go down H3381 to the pit, H953 that H4616 thou be not H3808 inhabited; H3427 and I shall set H5414 glory H6643 in the land H776 of the living; H2416
21 I will make H5414 thee a terror, H1091 and thou shalt be no H369 more : though thou be sought for, H1245 yet shalt thou never H3808 H5769 be found H4672 again, H5750 saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD. H3069
