Ezekiel 26:7-21

Ezekiel 26:7-21

[7] For thus saith  the Lord  GOD;  Behold, I will bring  upon Tyrus  Nebuchadrezzar  king  of Babylon,  a king  from the north,  with horses,  and with chariots,  and with horsemen,  and companies,  and much  people.  [8] He shall slay  with the sword  thy daughters  in the field:  and he shall make  a fort  against thee, and cast  a mount  against thee, and lift up  the buckler  [9] And he shall set  engines  of war  against thy walls,  and with his axes  he shall break down  thy towers.  [10] By reason of the abundance  of his horses  their dust  shall cover  thee: thy walls  shall shake  at the noise  of the horsemen,  and of the wheels,  and of the chariots,  when he shall enter  into thy gates,  as men enter  into a city  wherein is made a breach.  [11] With the hoofs  of his horses  shall he tread down  all thy streets:  he shall slay  thy people  by the sword,  and thy strong  garrisons  shall go down  to the ground.  [12] And they shall make a spoil  of thy riches,  and make a prey  of thy merchandise:  and they shall break down  thy walls,  and destroy  thy pleasant  houses:  and they shall lay  thy stones  and thy timber  and thy dust  in the midst  of the water.  [13] And I will cause the noise  of thy songs  to cease;  and the sound  of thy harps  shall be no more heard.  [14] And I will make  thee like the top  of a rock:  nets  upon;  thou shalt be built  no more: for I the LORD  have spoken  it, saith  the Lord  GOD.  [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  [16] Then all the princes  of the sea  shall come down  from their thrones,  and lay away  their robes,  and put off  their broidered  garments:  they shall clothe  themselves with trembling;  they shall sit  upon the ground,  and shall tremble  at every moment,  and be astonished  [17] And they shall take up  a lamentation  for thee, and say  to thee, How art thou destroyed,  that wast inhabited  of seafaring men,  the renowned  city,  which wast strong  in the sea,  she and her inhabitants,  which cause  their terror  to be on all that haunt  it! [18] Now shall the isles  tremble  in the day  of thy fall;  yea, the isles  that are in the sea  shall be troubled  at thy departure.  [19] For thus saith  the Lord  GOD;  When I shall make  thee a desolate  city,  that are not inhabited;  when I shall bring up  the deep  upon thee, and great  waters  shall cover  [20] When I shall bring thee down  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;  [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.
