5. It will be just a rock in the sea, a place for fishermen to spread their nets, for I have spoken, says the Sovereign lord. Tyre will become the prey of many nations,
6. and its mainland villages will be destroyed by the sword. Then they will know that I am the lord.
7. “This is what the Sovereign lord says: From the north I will bring King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon against Tyre. He is king of kings and brings his horses, chariots, charioteers, and great army.
8. First he will destroy your mainland villages. Then he will attack you by building a siege wall, constructing a ramp, and raising a roof of shields against you.
9. He will pound your walls with battering rams and demolish your towers with sledgehammers.
10. The hooves of his horses will choke the city with dust, and the noise of the charioteers and chariot wheels will shake your walls as they storm through your broken gates.
