27. Your wealth, merchandise and wares,your mariners, sailors and shipwrights,your merchants and all your soldiers,and everyone else on boardwill sink into the heart of the seaon the day of your shipwreck.
28. The shorelands will quakewhen your sailors cry out.
29. All who handle the oarswill abandon their ships;the mariners and all the sailorswill stand on the shore.
30. They will raise their voiceand cry bitterly over you;they will sprinkle dust on their headsand roll in ashes.
31. They will shave their heads because of youand will put on sackcloth.They will weep over you with anguish of souland with bitter mourning.
32. As they wail and mourn over you,they will take up a lament concerning you:‘Who was ever silenced like Tyre,surrounded by the sea?’

34. Now you are shattered by the seain the depths of the waters;your wares and all your companyhave gone down with you.
