1. The word of the Lord came to me again. He said,
2. “Son of man, sing this sad song about Tyre.
3. Say this about Tyre: ‘Tyre, you are the door to the seas. You are the merchant for many nations. You travel to many countries along the coast. This is what the Lord GOD says: “Tyre, you think that you are so beautiful. You think you are perfectly beautiful!
4. The Mediterranean Sea is the border around your city. Your builders made you perfectly beautiful, like the ships that sail from you.
5. Your builders used cypress trees from the mountains of Senir to make your planks. They used cedar trees from Lebanon to make your mast.
