3 And say to Tyre who is situated at the entrance of the sea, who is a merchant of the peoples for many coastlands, Thus says the Lord God: O Tyre, you have said,“I am perfect in beauty.”
4 Your borders are in the midst of the seas.Your builders have perfected your beauty.
5 They have made all your ship boardsof fir trees from Senir;they have taken cedars from Lebanonto make a mast for you.
6 Of the oaks of Bashanthey have made your oars;with ivory they have inlaid your deck of boxwoodout of the coastlands of Cyprus.
7 Fine linen with embroidered work from Egypt was your sail,so that it became your distinguishing sign;blue and purple from the coastlands of Elishahwas your awning.
8 The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad were your mariners;your wise men, O Tyre, were aboard; they were your pilots.
9 The elders of Byblos and her wise menwere in you repairing your seams;all the ships of the sea with their marinerswere in you to deal in your merchandise.
