Many coastlands were your own special markets; they brought you in payment ivory tusks and ebony.Syria did business with you because of your abundant goods; they exchanged for your wares emeralds, purple, embroidered work, fine linen, coral, and ruby.Judah and the land of Israel traded with you; they exchanged for your merchandise wheat of Minnith, meal, honey, oil, and balm.Damascus did business with you for your abundant goods, because of your great wealth of every kind; wine of Helbon and wool of Saharand casks of wine from Uzal they exchanged for your wares; wrought iron, cassia, and calamus were bartered for your merchandise.Dedan traded with you in saddlecloths for riding.Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your favored dealers in lambs, rams, and goats; in these they did business with you.The traders of Sheba and Raamah traded with you; they exchanged for your wares the best of all kinds of spices and all precious stones and gold.Haran, Canneh, Eden, traders of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad traded with you.In your market these traded with you in choice garments, in clothes of blue and embroidered work, and in carpets of colored material, bound with cords and made secure.The ships of Tarshish traveled for you with your merchandise. So you were filled and heavily laden in the heart of the seas.“ Your rowers have brought you out into the high seas. The east wind has wrecked you in the heart of the seas.Your riches, your wares, your merchandise, your mariners and your pilots, your caulkers, your dealers in merchandise, and all your men of war who are in you, with all your crew that is in your midst, sink into the heart of the seas on the day of your fall.At the sound of the cry of your pilots the countryside shakes,and down from their ships come all who handle the oar. The mariners and all the pilots of the sea stand on the landand shout aloud over you and cry out bitterly. They cast dust on their heads and wallow in ashes;they make themselves bald for you and put sackcloth on their waist, and they weep over you in bitterness of soul, with bitter mourning.In their wailing they raise a lamentation for you and lament over you:‘ Who is like Tyre, like one destroyed in the midst of the sea?When your wares came from the seas, you satisfied many peoples; with your abundant wealth and merchandise you enriched the kings of the earth.Now you are wrecked by the seas, in the depths of the waters; your merchandise and all your crew in your midst have sunk with you.All the inhabitants of the coastlands are appalled at you, and the hair of their kings bristles with horror; their faces are convulsed.The merchants among the peoples hiss at you; you have come to a dreadful end and shall be no more forever.’”
