5
She shall be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea; for I have spoken it, says the Lord GOD; and she shall become a spoil to the nations.
6
Her daughters who are in the field shall be slain with the sword: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
7
For thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I will bring on Tzor Nevukhadretztzar king of Bavel, king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and a company, and much people.
8
He shall kill with the sword your daughters in the field; and he shall make forts against you, and cast up a mound against you, and raise up the buckler against you.
9
He shall set his battering engines against your walls, and with his axes he shall break down your towers.
10
By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover you: your walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wagons, and of the chariots, when he shall enter into your gates, as men enter into a city in which is made a breach.
11
With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all your streets; he shall kill your people with the sword; and the pillars of your strength shall go down to the ground.
12
They shall make a spoil of your riches, and make a prey of your merchandise; and they shall break down your walls, and destroy your pleasant houses; and they shall lay your stones and your timber and your dust in the midst of the waters.
13
I will cause the noise of your songs to cease; and the sound of your harps shall be no more heard.
14
I will make you a bare rock; you shall be a place for the spreading of nets; you shall be built no more: for I the LORD have spoken it, says the Lord GOD.
15
Thus says the Lord GOD to Tzor: shall not the isles shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made in the midst of you?
