Ezekiel 26

Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB

1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first <em>day</em> of the month, <em>that</em> the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

2 Son of man, because Tyre has said concerning Jerusalem, Aha, <em>it is well that</em> she is broken who is the gate of the peoples; she is turned unto me; I shall be filled; and she <em>shall be</em> deserted:

3 therefore thus hath the Lord GOD said; Behold, I <em>am</em> against thee, O Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against thee as the sea causes its waves to come up.

4 And they shall demolish the walls of Tyre and destroy her towers; I will also scrape her dust from her and make her like the top of a rock.

5 It shall be <em>a place for</em> the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea: for I have spoken, said the Lord GOD, and it shall be spoiled by the Gentiles.

6 And her daughters who <em>are</em> in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I <em>am</em> the LORD.

7 For thus hath the Lord GOD said; Behold, I bring upon Tyre Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, <em>a</em> king of kings, from the north, with horses and with chariots and with horsemen and companies and many people.

8 He shall slay with the sword thy daughters who <em>are</em> in the field; and he shall make a fort against thee and cast a mount against thee and lift up the buckler against thee.

9 And he shall set engines of war against thy walls, and with his hammers 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 through breaches into a destroyed city.

11 With the hoofs of his horses he shall tread down all thy streets; he shall slay thy people by the sword, and the statues of thy strength shall fall to the ground.

12 And they shall steal thy riches and make a spoil of thy merchandise; and they shall ruin thy walls and destroy thy precious houses: and they shall lay thy stones and thy timber and thy dust in the midst of the waters.

13 And I will cause the noise of thy songs to cease; and the sound of thy harps shall no longer be heard.

14 And I will make thee like the top of a rock: thou shalt be <em>a place</em> to spread nets upon; thou shalt never be built again; for I the LORD have spoken, said the Lord GOD.

15 Thus hath the Lord GOD said to Tyre: Certainly the isles shall shake at the sound of thy fall, when the wounded shall cry, when the slaughter shall be made in the midst of thee.

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 <em>every</em> moment and be astonished at thee.

17 And they shall take up a lamentation for thee and say to thee, How didst thou perish, <em>that wast</em> inhabited in the seas? The renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror <em>to be</em> on all those that dwell therein.

18 Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that <em>are</em> in the sea shall be terrorized at thy end.

19 For thus hath the Lord GOD said: I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; I shall cause the abyss to come up over thee and the many waters shall cover thee.

20 And I shall bring thee down with those that descend into the grave, with the people of the age, and shall set thee in the lowest part of the earth, as the deserts of old, with those that go down to the grave, that thou not be inhabited again; and I shall set glory in the land of the living;

21 I will turn thee into nothing, and thou <em>shalt be</em> no <em>more</em>; though thou be sought for, yet thou shalt never be found again, said the Lord GOD.

New International Version NIV

1 In the eleventh month of the twelfth year, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me:

2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said of Jerusalem, ‘Aha! The gate to the nations is broken, and its doors have swung open to me; now that she lies in ruins I will prosper,’

3 therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am against you, Tyre, and I will bring many nations against you, like the sea casting up its waves.

4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre and pull down her towers; I will scrape away her rubble and make her a bare rock.

5 Out in the sea she will become a place to spread fishnets, for I have spoken, declares the Sovereign LORD. She will become plunder for the nations,

6 and her settlements on the mainland will be ravaged by the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.

7 “For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: From the north I am going to bring against Tyre Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, with horses and chariots, with horsemen and a great army.

8 He will ravage your settlements on the mainland with the sword; he will set up siege works against you, build a ramp up to your walls and raise his shields against you.

9 He will direct the blows of his battering rams against your walls and demolish your towers with his weapons.

10 His horses will be so many that they will cover you with dust. Your walls will tremble at the noise of the warhorses, wagons and chariots when he enters your gates as men enter a city whose walls have been broken through.

11 The hooves of his horses will trample all your streets; he will kill your people with the sword, and your strong pillars will fall to the ground.

12 They will plunder your wealth and loot your merchandise; they will break down your walls and demolish your fine houses and throw your stones, timber and rubble into the sea.

13 I will put an end to your noisy songs, and the music of your harps will be heard no more.

14 I will make you a bare rock, and you will become a place to spread fishnets. You will never be rebuilt, for I the LORD have spoken, declares the Sovereign LORD.

15 “This is what the Sovereign LORD says to Tyre: Will not the coastlands tremble at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan and the slaughter takes place in you?

16 Then all the princes of the coast will step down from their thrones and lay aside their robes and take off their embroidered garments. Clothed with terror, they will sit on the ground, trembling every moment, appalled at you.

17 Then they will take up a lament concerning you and say to you: “ ‘How you are destroyed, city of renown, peopled by men of the sea! You were a power on the seas, you and your citizens; you put your terror on all who lived there.

18 Now the coastlands tremble on the day of your fall; the islands in the sea are terrified at your collapse.’

19 “This is what the Sovereign LORD says: When I make you a desolate city, like cities no longer inhabited, and when I bring the ocean depths over you and its vast waters cover you,

20 then I will bring you down with those who go down to the pit, to the people of long ago. I will make you dwell in the earth below, as in ancient ruins, with those who go down to the pit, and you will not return or take your place in the land of the living.

21 I will bring you to a horrible end and you will be no more. You will be sought, but you will never again be found, declares the Sovereign LORD.”
