² Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth his waves to come up.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus, and break down her towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rock.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ It shall be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD: and it shall become a spoil to the nations.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And it came to pass in the eleventh eleventh year, in the third month, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chesnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And I will cause the noise of thy songs to cease; and the sound of thy harps shall be no more heard.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And I will make thee like the top of a rock: thou shalt be a place to spread nets upon; thou shalt be built no more: for I the LORD have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Thus saith the Lord GOD to Tyrus; Shall not the isles shake at the sound of thy fall, when the wounded cry, when the slaughter is made in the midst of thee?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ For thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon thee, and great waters shall cover thee;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ When I shall bring thee down with them that descend into the pit, with the people of old time, and shall set thee in the low parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the living;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ I will make thee a terror, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou never be found again, saith the Lord GOD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in thine army, thy men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they set forth thy comeliness.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they were thy merchants: they traded the persons of men and vessels of brass in thy market.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ They of the house of Togarmah traded in thy fairs with horses and horsemen and mules.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ Dan Dan also and Javan going to and fro occupied in thy fairs: bright iron, cassia, and calamus, were in thy market.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ Arabia, and all the princes of Kedar, they occupied with thee in lambs, and rams, and goats: in these were they thy merchants.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And it came to pass in the eleventh eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, healed, to put a roller to bind it, to make it strong to hold the sword.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out upon the land of Egypt.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
