Ezekiel 27
1 HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
Yahweh’s word came again to me, saying,

“You, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre;
3 og sig til Tyrus, som ligger ved Adgangen til Havet og driver Handel med Folkeslagene paa de mange fjerne Strande: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Tyrus, du siger: »Fuldendt i Skønhed er jeg!«
and tell Tyre, ‘You who dwell at the entry of the sea, who are the merchant of the peoples to many islands, the Lord Yahweh says: “You, Tyre, have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’
