"And her daughters in the open country will be put to the sword: and they will be certain that I am the Lord."
— Ezekiel 26:6, Bible in Basic English
For this cause the Lord has said, See, I am against you, O Tyre, and will send up a number of nations against you as the sea sends up its waves.
And they will give the walls of Tyre to destruction and have its towers broken: and I will take even her dust away from her, and make her an uncovered rock
She will be a place for the stretching out of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have said it, says the Lord: and her goods will be given over to the nations.
And her daughters in the open country will be put to the sword: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
For this is what the Lord has said: See, I will send up from the north Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, king of kings, against Tyre, with horses and war-carriages and with an army and great numbers of people.
He will put to the sword your daughters in the open country: he will make strong walls against you and put up an earthwork against you, arming himself for war against you.
He will put up his engines of war against your walls, and your towers will be broken down by his axes.
