Ezekiel 27:32 in context

Ezekiel 27:29–35

29

All who handle the oars,

the mariners and all the pilots of the sea,

will come down from their ships.

They will stand on the land,

30

and will cause their voice to be heard over you,

and will cry bitterly.

They will cast up dust on their heads.

They will wallow in the ashes.

31

They will make themselves bald for you,

and clothe themselves with sackcloth.

They will weep for you in bitterness of soul,

with bitter mourning.

32
Selected verse

In their wailing they will take up a lamentation for you,

and lament over you, saying,

‘Who is there like Tyre,

like her who is brought to silence in the middle of the sea?’

33

When your wares came from the seas,

you filled many peoples.

You enriched the kings of the earth

with the multitude of your riches and of your merchandise.

34

In the time that you were broken by the seas,

in the depths of the waters,

your merchandise and all your company fell within you.

35

All the inhabitants of the islands are astonished at you,

and their kings are horribly afraid.

They are troubled in their face.
