< Ezekiel 26 >

1 In the eleventh year, in the first of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
And it was in one [plus] ten year on [day] one of the month it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, ‘Aha! She is broken! She who was the gateway of the peoples has been returned to me. I will be replenished, now that she is laid waste;’
O son of humankind because that it said Tyre on Jerusalem aha! it is broken [the] doors of the peoples it has been turned over to me I will be filled it has been laid waste.
3 therefore the Lord GOD says, ‘Behold, I am against you, Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] on you O Tyre and I will bring up on you nations many as brings up the sea waves its.
4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre, and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her a bare rock.
And they will destroy [the] walls of Tyre and they will tear down towers its and I will scrape away dust its from it and I will make it into bareness of rock.
5 She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD. ‘She will become plunder for the nations.
A spreading place of nets it will be in [the] middle of the sea for I I have spoken [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and it will become spoil for the nations.
6 Her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’
And daughters its which [are] on the land with the sword they will be killed and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.
7 “For the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Tyre Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, from the north, with horses, with chariots, with horsemen, and an army with many people.
For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] about to bring against Tyre Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon from [the] north [the] king of kings with horse[s] and with chariotry and with horsemen and a company and a people numerous.
8 He will kill your daughters in the field with the sword. He will make forts against you, cast up a mound against you, and raise up the buckler against you.
Daughters your on the land with the sword he will kill and he will make on you a siege-wall and he will pour out on you a mound and he will raise up on you a body shield.
9 He will set his battering engines against your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers.
And [the] blow of battering-ram his he will set on walls your and towers your he will break down with swords his.
10 By reason of the abundance of his horses, their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen, of the wagons, and of the chariots, when he enters into your gates, as men enter into a city which is broken open.
From [the] abundance of horses his it will cover you dust their from [the] sound of a horseman and wheel[s] and chariot[s] they will shake walls your when comes he in gates your like [the] entering of a city broken into.
11 He will tread down all your streets with the hoofs of his horses. He will kill your people with the sword. The pillars of your strength will go down to the ground.
With [the] hooves of horses his he will trample all streets your people your with the sword he will kill and [the] pillars of strength your to the ground it will come down.
12 They will make a plunder of your riches and make a prey of your merchandise. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. They will lay your stones, your timber, and your dust in the middle of the waters.
And they will plunder wealth your and they will take as spoil merchandise your and they will tear down walls your and [the] houses of desire your they will pull down and stones your and wood your and dust your in [the] midst of [the] waters they will put.
13 I will cause the noise of your songs to cease. The sound of your harps won’t be heard any more.
And I will put an end to [the] noise of songs your and [the] sound of harps your not it will be heard again.
14 I will make you a bare rock. You will be a place for the spreading of nets. You will be built no more; for I the LORD have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD.
And I will make you into bareness of rock a spreading place of nets you will be not you will be built again for I Yahweh I have spoken [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
15 “The Lord GOD says to Tyre: ‘Won’t the islands shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made within you?
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh to Tyre ¿ not - from [the] sound of downfall your when groan [the] fatally wounded when is killed a slaughter in [the] midst of you will they quake the islands.
16 Then all the princes of the sea will come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling. They will sit on the ground, and will tremble every moment, and be astonished at you.
And they will go down from on thrones their all [the] princes of the sea and they will remove robes their and [the] clothes of multicolored cloth their they will strip off trembling - they will be clothed on the ground they will sit and they will tremble to moments and they will be appalled on you.
17 They will take up a lamentation over you, and tell you, “How you are destroyed, who were inhabited by seafaring men, the renowned city, who was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all who lived there!”
And they will take up on you a lamentation and they will say to you how! you have perished O inhabited [city] from [the] seas O city that was praised which it was mighty in the sea it and inhabitants its which they gave terror their to all inhabitants its.
18 Now the islands will tremble in the day of your fall. Yes, the islands that are in the sea will be dismayed at your departure.’
Now they will tremble the islands [the] day of downfall your and they will be terrified the islands which [are] in the sea because went out you.
19 “For the Lord GOD says: ‘When I make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep on you, and the great waters cover you,
For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh when make I you a city desolate like cities which not they are inhabited when bring up over you [the] deep and they will cover you the waters many.
20 then I will bring you down with those who descend into the pit, to the people of old time, and will make you dwell in the lower parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old, with those who go down to the pit, that you be not inhabited; and I will set glory in the land of the living.
And I will send down you with [those who] have gone down of [the] pit to a people of antiquity and I will cause to dwell you in [the] earth of [the] lowest parts like waste places from long ago with [those who] have gone down of [the] pit so that not you will remain and I will put splendor in [the] land of [the] living.
21 I will make you a terror, and you will no more have any being. Though you are sought for, yet you will never be found again,’ says the Lord GOD.”
Terrors I will give to you and there not [will be] you so you may be sought and not you will be found again for ever [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
