Ezekiel 27:25-36 World English Bible (WEB)

25. The ships of Tarshish were your caravans for your merchandise: and you were replenished, and made very glorious in the heart of the seas.

26. Your rowers have brought you into great waters: the east wind has broken you in the heart of the seas.

27. Your riches, and your wares, your merchandise, your mariners, and your pilots, your repairers of ship seams, and the dealers in your merchandise, and all your men of war, who are in you, with all your company which is among you, shall fall into the heart of the seas in the day of your ruin.

28. At the sound of the cry of your pilots the suburbs shall shake.

29. All who handled the oar, the mariners, and all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships; they shall stand on the land,

30. and shall cause their voice to be heard over you, and shall cry bitterly, and shall cast up dust on their heads, they shall wallow themselves in the ashes:

31. and they shall make themselves bald for you, and clothe them with sackcloth, and they shall weep for you in bitterness of soul with bitter mourning.

32. In their wailing they shall 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 went out of 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.

36. The merchants among the peoples hiss at you; you have become a terror, and you will be no more.
