Ezequiel 27:32 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 27:32

And in their wailing they shall takes up a lamentation for
thee
A mournful song, such as was used at funerals, or in times of calamity; and so the Vulgate Latin version renders it: and lament over thee;
saying the following ditty; what city is like Tyrus, like the destroyed in the midst of the sea?
as there was none like it a few years ago for riches, splendour, and glory, so now there is none like it for misery and ruin; see ( Revelation 18:18 ) . The Targum is,

``who is as Tyre? there is none like unto her in the midst of the sea;''

she is not now Tyre the renowned, but Tyre the destroyed; destroyed in the midst of the sea, from whence she had her riches and her glory: or, "as one dumb or silent in the midst of the sea"; she, in whom was heard the voice of joy and singing, is now mute, and nothing more of that kind is heard in her see ( Revelation 18:22 ) .

Ezequiel 27:32 In-Context

30 Por ti levantarán la vozy llorarán con amargura;se echarán ceniza sobre la cabeza,y se revolcarán en ella.

31 Por tu culpa se raparán la cabeza,y se vestirán de luto.Llorarán por ti con gran amargura,y con angustiosos gemidos.

32 Entonarán sentidos lamentos,y en tono de amarga queja dirán:‘¿Quién en medio de los marespodía compararse a Tiro?’

33 Cuando desembarcaban tus productosmuchas naciones quedaban satisfechas.Con tus muchas riquezas y mercancías,enriquecías a los reyes de la tierra.

34 Pero ahora el mar te ha hecho pedazos,¡yaces en lo profundo de las aguas!Tus mercancías y toda tu tripulaciónse hundieron contigo.
