1 Now in the eleventh year, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me saying,
2 "Son of man, because Tyre has said concerning Jerusalem, 'Aha, the gateway of the peoples is broken; it has opened to me. I shall be filled, now that she is laid waste,'
3 therefore thus says the Lord God, 'Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and I will bring up many nations against you, as the sea brings up its waves.
4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers; and I will scrape her debris from her and make her a bare rock.
5 She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea, for I have spoken,' declares the Lord God, 'and she will become spoil for the nations.
6 Also her daughters who are on the mainland will be slain by the sword, and they will know that I am the Lord.'"
