A Lament for Tyre

1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 "Son of man, take up a lament¹ concerning Tyre. 3 Say to Tyre,² situated at the gateway to the sea,³ merchant of peoples on many coasts, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: " 'You say, O Tyre, "I am perfect in beauty.⁴" 4 Your domain was on the high seas; your builders brought your beauty to perfection.⁵ 5 They made all your timbers of pine trees from Senir^a;⁶ they took a cedar from Lebanon⁷ to make a mast for you. 6 Of oaks⁸ from Bashan they made your oars; of cypress wood^b from the coasts of Cyprus^c⁹ they made your deck, inlaid with ivory.
