Hesekiel 27:1-6

Listen to Hesekiel 27:1-6
1 Und das Wort Jehovas geschah zu mir also:
2 Und du, Menschensohn, erhebe ein Klagelied ĂŒber Tyrus und sprich zu Tyrus:
3 Die du wohnst an den ZugÀngen des Meeres und Handel treibst mit den Völkern nach vielen Inseln hin, so spricht der Herr, Jehova: Tyrus, du sprichst: Ich bin vollkommen an Schönheit!
4 Deine Grenzen sind im Herzen der Meere; deine Bauleute haben deine Schönheit vollkommen gemacht.
5 Aus Zypressen von Senir bauten sie dir alles Doppelplankenwerk; sie nahmen Zedern vom Libanon, um dir einen Mast zu machen;
6 aus Eichen von Basan machten sie deine Ruder; dein Verdeck machten sie aus Elfenbein, eingefaßt in Scherbinzeder von den Inseln der KittĂ€er.
