1 An oracle of the word of the Lord concerning the land of Hadrach, with its focus on Damascus:The eyes of all humanity, especially of the tribes of Israel, are toward the Lord,
2 as are those of Hamath also, which adjoins Damascus, and Tyre and Sidon, though they consider themselves to be very wise.
3 Tyre built herself a fortification and piled up silver like dust and gold like the mud of the streets!
4 Nevertheless the Lord will evict her and shove her fortifications into the sea – she will be consumed by fire.
