22 The merchants of Sheba and Raamah traded with you. They traded all the best spices and every kind of precious stone and gold for your goods.
23 Haran, Canneh, Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Kilmad traded with you.
24 They paid with the finest clothing, blue cloth, cloth with fine needlework, rugs of many colors, and the strongest ropes. These were the things they traded with you.
25 The ships from Tarshish carried the things you sold. “‘Tyre, you are like one of those cargo ships. You are on the sea, loaded with many riches.
26 Your oarsmen rowed you far out to sea. But a powerful east wind will destroy your ship at sea.
27 All your wealth will spill into the sea. Your wealth—the things you buy and sell—will spill into the sea. Your whole crew—sailors, pilots, and the men who put caulking between the boards on your ship— will spill into the sea. The merchants and soldiers in your city will all sink into the sea. That will happen on the day that you are destroyed!
28 “‘You send your merchants to faraway places. Those places will shake with fear when they hear your pilots’ cry!
