19“‘Danites and Greeks from Uzal bought your merchandise; they exchanged wrought iron, cassia and calamus for your wares.

20“‘Dedan traded in saddle blankets with you.

21“‘Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your customers; they did business with you in lambs, rams and goats.

22“‘The merchants of Sheba and Raamah traded with you; for your merchandise they exchanged the finest of all kinds of spices and precious stones, and gold.

23“‘Haran, Canneh and Eden and merchants of Sheba, Asshur and Kilmad traded with you. 24In your marketplace they traded with you beautiful garments, blue fabric, embroidered work and multicolored rugs with cords twisted and tightly knotted.

25“‘The ships of Tarshish serve

as carriers for your wares.

You are filled with heavy cargo

in the heart of the sea.

26Your oarsmen take you

out to the high seas.

But the east wind will break you to pieces

in the heart of the sea.

27Your wealth, merchandise and wares,

your mariners, seamen and shipwrights,

your merchants and all your soldiers,

and everyone else on board

will sink into the heart of the sea

on the day of your shipwreck.

28The shorelands will quake

when your seamen cry out.

29All who handle the oars

will abandon their ships;

the mariners and all the seamen

will stand on the shore.

30They will raise their voice

and cry bitterly over you;

they will sprinkle dust on their heads

and roll in ashes.

31They will shave their heads because of you

and will put on sackcloth.

They will weep over you with anguish of soul

and with bitter mourning.

32As they wail and mourn over you,

they will take up a lament concerning you:

“Who was ever silenced like Tyre,

surrounded by the sea?”

33When your merchandise went out on the seas,

you satisfied many nations;

with your great wealth and your wares

you enriched the kings of the earth.

34Now you are shattered by the sea

in the depths of the waters;

your wares and all your company

have gone down with you.

35All who live in the coastlands

are appalled at you;

their kings shudder with horror

and their faces are distorted with fear.

36The merchants among the nations hiss at you;

you have come to a horrible end

and will be no more.’”
