Ezekiel 26:1-6

Ezekiel 26

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

1 In the eleventh month of the twelfth year, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said of Jerusalem, ‘Aha! The gate to the nations is broken; it has swung open to me; now that she lies in ruins I will be filled,’

3 therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, O Tyre, I am against you, and I will raise up many nations against you, as the sea brings up its waves.

4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre and demolish her towers. I will scrape the soil from her and make her a bare rock.

5 She will become a place to spread nets in the sea, for I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD. She will become plunder for the nations,

6 and the villages on her mainland will be slain by the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’
