When they heard about all he was doing, many people came to him from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, and the regions across the Jordan and around Tyre and Sidon.

You were happy when the land of Israel became empty. So I will treat you in the same way. Mount Seir, you will be empty. So will the whole land of Edom. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”

So the Lord and King says,“ I am very angry with those nations. I have spoken against them and the whole land of Edom. They were very happy when they took over my land. Deep down inside them, they hated Israel. They wanted to take its grasslands.

The sword of the Lord will finish its deadly work in the sky. Then it will come down to strike Edom. He will totally destroy that nation.

“ How terrible it will be for you, Chorazin! How terrible for you, Bethsaida! Suppose the miracles done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon. They would have turned away from their sins long ago. They would have put on clothes for mourning. They would have sat down in ashes.

It was the first day of the 11th month. It was the 12th year since King Jehoiachin had been brought to Babylon as a prisoner. A message from the Lord came to me. The Lord said,“ Son of man, Tyre laughed because of what happened to Jerusalem. The people of Tyre said,‘ Jerusalem is the gateway to the nations. But the gate is broken. Its doors have swung open to us. Jerusalem has been destroyed. So now we will succeed.’ ”The Lord and King says,“ But I am against you, Tyre. I will bring many nations against you. They will come in like the waves of the sea.They will destroy your walls. They will pull down your towers. I will clear away the stones of your broken- down buildings. I will turn you into nothing but a bare rock.Out in the Mediterranean Sea your island city will become a place to spread fishnets. I have spoken,” announces the Lord and King.“ The nations will take you and everything you have.Your settlements on the coast will be destroyed by war. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”The Lord and King says,“ From the north I am going to bring Nebuchadnezzar against Tyre. He is the king of Babylon. He is the greatest king of all. He will come with horses and chariots. Horsemen and a great army will be brought along with him.He will go to war against you. He will destroy your settlements on the coast. He will bring in war machines to attack you. A ramp will be built up to your walls. He will raise his shields against you.He will use huge logs to knock down your walls. He will destroy your towers with his weapons.He will have so many horses that they will cover you with dust. Your walls will shake because of the noise of his war horses, wagons and chariots. He will enter your gates, just as men enter a city whose walls have been broken through.The hooves of his horses will pound in your streets. His swords will kill your people. Your strong pillars will fall to the ground.His men will take away from you your wealth and anything else you have. They will pull down your walls. They will completely destroy your fine houses. They will throw the stones and lumber of your broken- down buildings into the sea.I will put an end to your noisy songs. No one will hear the music of your harps anymore.I will turn you into nothing but a bare rock. You will become a place to spread fishnets. You will never be rebuilt. I have spoken. I am the Lord,” announces the Lord and King.The Lord and King speaks to Tyre. He says,“ The lands along the coast will shake because of the sound of your fall. Wounded people will groan because so many are dying there.Then all the princes along the coast will step down from their thrones. They will put their robes away. They will take off their beautiful clothes. They will sit on the ground. They will put on terror as if it were their clothes. They will tremble with fear all the time. They will be shocked because of what has happened to you.Then they will sing a song of sadness about you. They will say to you,“‘ Famous city, you have been completely destroyed! You were filled with sea traders. You and your citizens were a mighty power on the seas. You terrified everyone who lived in you.The lands along the coast trembled with fear when you fell. The islands in the sea were terrified when you were destroyed.’ ”The Lord and King says to Tyre,“ I will turn you into an empty city. You will be like cities where no one lives anymore. I will cause the ocean to sweep over you. Its mighty waters will cover you.So I will bring you down together with those who go down into the grave. The people there lived long ago. You will have to live in the earth below. It will be like living in buildings that were destroyed many years ago. You will go down into the grave along with others. And you will never come back. You will not take your place in this world again.I will bring you to a horrible end. You will be gone forever. People will look for you. But they will never find you,” announces the Lord and King.

Then Jesus left the area of Tyre and went through Sidon. He went down to the Sea of Galilee and into the area known as the Ten Cities.

Then Moses gave their land to them. He gave it to the tribes of Gad and Reuben and half of the tribe of Manasseh. Manasseh was Joseph’s son. One part of that land had belonged to the kingdom of Sihon. He was the king of the Amorites. The other part had belonged to the kingdom of Og. He was the king of Bashan. Moses gave that whole land to those two and a half tribes. It included its cities and the territory around them.The people of Gad built up the cities of Dibon, Ataroth and Aroer.They built up Atroth Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,Beth Nimrah and Beth Haran. They built a high wall around each of those cities. They also built sheep pens for their flocks.The people of Reuben built up Heshbon, Elealeh and Kiriathaim.They also built up Nebo, Baal Meon and Sibmah. They gave new names to the cities they had built up.

The other half of Manasseh’s tribe had already received the share of land Moses had given them. Their share was east of the Jordan River. The tribes of Reuben and Gad had already received their share too. Moses, the servant of the Lord, had given it to them.That land starts at Aroer on the rim of the Arnon River valley. It includes the town in the middle of the valley. It includes the high plains of Medeba all the way to Dibon.It also includes all the towns of Sihon, the king of the Amorites. He had ruled in Heshbon. That area reaches to the border of Ammon.It also includes Gilead. It includes the territory of Geshur and Maakah. It includes Mount Hermon and the whole land of Bashan all the way to Salekah.So it includes the entire kingdom of Og in Bashan. Og had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. He was the last of the Rephaites. Moses had won the battle over Sihon and Og. He had taken over their land.But the Israelites didn’t drive out the people of Geshur and Maakah. So they continue to live among the Israelites to this day.Moses hadn’t given any share of the land to the tribe of Levi. That’s because the food offerings are their share. Those offerings are presented to the Lord, the God of Israel. Moses gave the Levites what he had promised them.

Jesus went from there to a place near Tyre. He entered a house. He did not want anyone to know where he was. But he could not keep it a secret.

The people of Tyre will come with gifts. Wealthy people will try to gain your favor.

He says,“ I will include Egypt and Babylon in a list of nations who recognize me as king. I will also include Philistia and Tyre, along with Cush. I will say about them,‘ They were born in Zion.’ ”

“ Israel, I have loved you,” says the Lord.“ But you ask,‘ How have you loved us?’“ Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?” says the Lord.“ But I chose Jacobinstead of Esau. I have turned Esau’s hill country into a dry and empty land. I left that land of Edom to the wild dogs in the desert.”Edom might say,“ We have been crushed. But we’ll rebuild our cities.” The Lord who rules over all says,“ They might rebuild their cities. But I will destroy them. They will be called the Evil Land. My anger will always remain on them.

Here is a prophecy against Tyre that the Lord gave me. Men in the ships of Tarshish, cry out! The city of Tyre is destroyed. Its houses and harbor are gone. That’s the message you have received from the island of Cyprus.People on the island of Tyre, be silent. Traders from the city of Sidon, be quiet. Those who sail on the Mediterranean Sea have made you rich.Grain from Egypt came across the mighty waters. The harvest of the Nile River brought wealth to Tyre. It became the market place of the nations.Sidon, be ashamed. Mighty Tyre out in the sea, be ashamed. The sea has spoken. It has said,“ It’s as if I had never felt labor pains or had children. It’s as if I had never brought up sons or daughters. It’s as if the city of Tyre had never existed.”The Egyptians will hear about what has happened to Tyre. They’ll be very sad and troubled.People of the island of Tyre, cry out! Go across the sea to Tarshish.Just look at Tyre. It’s no longer the old, old city that was known for its wild parties. It no longer sends its people out to make their homes in lands far away.Tyre was a city that produced kings. Its traders were princes. They were honored all over the earth. So who planned to destroy such a city?The Lord who rules over all planned to do it. He wanted to bring down all its pride and glory. He wanted to shame those who were honored all over the earth.People of Tarshish, farm your land as they do along the Nile River. That’s because you don’t have a harbor anymore.The Lord has reached his powerful hand out over the sea. He has made its kingdoms tremble with fear. He has given a command concerning Phoenicia. He has ordered that its forts be destroyed.He said,“ No more wild parties for you! People of Sidon, you are now destroyed!“ Leave your city. Go across the sea to Cyprus. Even there you will not find any rest.”Look at the land of the Babylonians. No one lives there anymore. The Assyrians have turned it into a place for desert creatures. They built their towers in order to attack it. They took everything out of its forts. They knocked down all its buildings.Men in the ships of Tarshish, cry out! Mighty Tyre is destroyed!A time is coming when people will forget about Tyre for 70 years. That’s the length of a king’s life. But at the end of those 70 years, Tyre will be like the prostitute that people sing about. They say,“ Forgotten prostitute, pick up a harp. Walk through the city. Play the harp well. Sing many songs. Then you will be remembered.”At the end of the 70 years, the Lord will punish Tyre. He will let it return to its way of life as a prostitute. It will earn its living with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth.But the money it earns will be set apart for the Lord. The money won’t be stored up or kept for Tyre. Instead, it will go to those who live the way the Lord wants them to. It will pay for plenty of food and fine clothes for them.

It went to Abdon, Rehob, Hammon and Kanah. It reached all the way to Greater Sidon.The border then turned back toward Ramah. It went to Tyre, a city that had high walls around it. It turned toward Hosah. It came to an end at the Mediterranean Sea in the area of Akzib,
