Ezekiel 27:21-31

21 Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your favored dealers in lambs, rams, and goats; in these they did business with you.
22 The merchants of Sheba and Raamah traded with you; they exchanged for your wares the best of all kinds of spices, and all precious stones, and gold.
23 Haran, Canneh, Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad traded with you.
24 These traded with you in choice garments, in clothes of blue and embroidered work, and in carpets of colored material, bound with cords and made secure; in these they traded with you.
25 The ships of Tarshish traveled for you in your trade. So you were filled and heavily laden in the heart of the seas.
26 Your rowers have brought you into the high seas. The east wind has wrecked you in the heart of the seas.
27 Your riches, your wares, your merchandise, your mariners and your pilots, your caulkers, your dealers in merchandise, and all your warriors within you, with all the company that is with you, sink into the heart of the seas on the day of your ruin.
28 At the sound of the cry of your pilots the countryside shakes,
29 and down from their ships come all that handle the oar. The mariners and all the pilots of the sea stand on the shore
30 and wail aloud over you, and cry bitterly. They throw dust on their heads and wallow in ashes;
31 they make themselves bald for you, and put on sackcloth, and they weep over you in bitterness of soul, with bitter mourning.
