26:027:001 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
26:027:002 Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;
26:027:003 And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty.
26:027:004 Thy borders are in the midst of the seas, thy builders have
perfected thy beauty.
26:027:005 They have made all thy ship boards of fir trees of Senir: they
have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.
26:027:006 Of the oaks of Bashan have they made thine oars; the company
of the Ashurites have made thy benches of ivory, brought out
of the isles of Chittim.
26:027:007 Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was that which thou
spreadest forth to be thy sail; blue and purple from the isles
of Elishah was that which covered thee.
26:027:008 The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy mariners: thy wise men, O Tyrus, that were in thee, were thy pilots.
26:027:009 The ancients of Gebal and the wise men thereof were in thee
thy calkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were
in thee to occupy thy merchandise.
26:027:010 They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in thine army, thy
men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they
set forth thy comeliness.
