1. On the first day of the month in the eleventh year, the Lord spoke his word to me. He said,
2. “Son of man, Tyre said this about Jerusalem: ‘The city that was the gateway for the nations is destroyed, and its doors are swung open to me. I’ll get rich now that it’s ruined.’
3. So this is what the Almighty Lord says: I am against you, Tyre. I will bring many nations against you as the waves on the sea rise.
4. They will destroy the walls of Tyre and tear down its towers. Then I will sweep up the dust and turn Tyre into a bare rock.
5. It will become a place by the sea where people spread their fishing nets. I have spoken, declares the Almighty Lord. It will become a prize for the nations.
