The Lament of the Maritime Nations

Ezekiel 26:15-18

Thus said the Lord Jehovah to Tyre: Do not--from the noise of thy fall, In the groaning of the wounded, In the slaying of the slaughter in thy midst, The isles shake?

And come down from off their thrones have all princes of the sea, And they have turned aside their robes, And their embroidered garments strip off, Trembling they put on, on the earth they sit, And they have trembled every moment, And they have been astonished at thee,

And have lifted up for thee a lamentation, And said to thee: How hast thou perished, That art inhabited from the seas, The praised city, that was strong in the sea, She and her inhabitants, Who put their terror on all her inhabitants!

Now they tremble, is it not the day of thy fall? Troubled have been the isles that are in the sea, at thine outgoing.
