1The word of the Lord came to me:
2
from the coasts of Cyprus,
inlaid with ivory.
7Of fine embroidered linen from Egypt
was your sail,
serving as your ensign;
blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah
was your awning.
8 were within you;
they were your pilots.
9 and Lud and Put
were in your army,
your mighty warriors;
they hung shield and helmet in you;
they gave you splendor.
11
were on your walls all around;
men of Gamad were at your towers.
They hung their quivers all around your walls;
they made perfect your beauty.
12 traded with you; many coastlands were your own special markets; they brought you in payment ivory tusks and ebony.
16 did business with you because of your abundant goods; they exchanged for your wares turquoise, purple, embroidered work, fine linen, coral, and rubies.
17 honey, oil, and balm.
18 entered into trade for your wares; wrought iron, cassia, and sweet cane were bartered for your merchandise.
20Dedan traded with you in saddlecloths for riding.
21
25 like Tyre
in the midst of the sea?
33 Rev 18.19 When your wares came from the seas,
you satisfied many peoples;
with your abundant wealth and merchandise
you enriched the kings of the earth.
34 vv 26, 27 ; Ezek 26.19; Zech 9.3, 4Now you are wrecked by the seas,
in the depths of the waters;
your merchandise and all your crew
have sunk with you.
35 Ezek 26.15, 16; 32.10 All the inhabitants of the coastlands
are appalled at you,
and their kings are horribly afraid;
their faces are convulsed.
36 Ps 37.10, 36; Jer 18.16; Ezek 26.21; Zeph 2.15 The merchants among the peoples hiss at you;
you have come to a dreadful end
and shall be no more forever.”
