Ezekiel 27 — Context

And they will have the hair of their heads cut off because of you, and will put haircloth on their bodies, weeping for you with bitter grief in their souls, even with bitter sorrow.

And in their weeping they will make a song of grief for you, sorrowing over you and saying, Who is like Tyre, who has come to an end in the deep sea?

When your goods went out over the seas, you made numbers of peoples full; the wealth of the kings of the earth was increased with your great wealth and all your goods.

Now that you are broken by the seas in the deep waters, your goods and all your people will go down with you.

All the people of the sea-lands are overcome with wonder at you, and their kings are full of fear, their faces are troubled.

Those who do business among the peoples make sounds of surprise at you; you have become a thing of fear, you have come to an end for ever.
