Ezekiel 26 : 1 (LXXEN)
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Ezekiel 26 : 2 (LXXEN)
Son of man, because Sor has said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is crushed: the nations are destroyed: she is turned to me: she that was full is made desolate:
Ezekiel 26 : 3 (LXXEN)
therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against thee, O Sor, and I will bring up many nations against thee, as the sea comes up with its waves.
Ezekiel 26 : 4 (LXXEN)
And they shall cast down the walls of Sor, and shall cast down thy towers: and I will scrape her dust from off her, and make her a bare rock.
Ezekiel 26 : 5 (LXXEN)
She shall be in the midst of the sea *Lit. a refreshing of nets a place for repairing nets: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord: and it shall be a spoil for the nations.
Ezekiel 26 : 6 (LXXEN)
And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain with the sword, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Ezekiel 26 : 7 (LXXEN)
For thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will bring up against thee, O Sor, Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon from the north: he is a king of kings, with horses, and chariots, and horsemen, and a concourse of very many nations.
Ezekiel 26 : 8 (LXXEN)
He shall slay thy daughters that are in the field with the sword, and shall set a watch against thee, and build forts around thee, and carry a rampart round against thee, and set up warlike works, and array his spears against thee.
Ezekiel 26 : 9 (LXXEN)
He shall cast down with his swords thy walls and thy towers.
Ezekiel 26 : 10 (LXXEN)
By reason of thy multitude of his horses their dust shall cover thee, and by reason of the sound of his horsemen and the wheels of his chariots thy walls shall be shaken, when he enters into thy gates, as one entering into a city from the plain.
Ezekiel 26 : 11 (LXXEN)
With the hoofs of his horses they shall trample all thy streets: he shall slay thy people with the sword, and shall bring down to the ground the support of thy strength.
Ezekiel 26 : 12 (LXXEN)
And he shall prey upon thy power, and plunder thy substance, and shall cast down thy walls, and break down thy pleasant houses: and he shall cast thy stones and thy timber and thy dust into the midst of thy sea.
Ezekiel 26 : 13 (LXXEN)
And he shall destroy the multitude of thy musicians, and the sound of thy psalteries shall be heard no more.
Ezekiel 26 : 14 (LXXEN)
And I will make thee a bare rock: thou shalt be a place to spread nets upon; thou shalt be built no more: for I the Lord have spoken it, saith the Lord.
Ezekiel 26 : 15 (LXXEN)
For thus saith the Lord God to Sor; Shall not the isles shake at the sound of thy fall, while the wounded are groaning, while they have drawn a sword in the midst of thee?
Ezekiel 26 : 16 (LXXEN)
And all the princes of the nations of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and shall take off their *Lit. mitres crowns from their heads, and shall take off their embroidered raiment: they shall be utterly amazed; they shall sit upon the ground, and fear their own destruction, and shall groan over thee.
Ezekiel 26 : 17 (LXXEN)
And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and shall say to thee, How art thou destroyed from out of the sea, the renowned city, [Alex. +’which was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants’] that brought her terror upon all *Or, perhaps, her traders her inhabitants.
Ezekiel 26 : 18 (LXXEN)
And the isles shall be alarmed at the day of thy fall.
Ezekiel 26 : 19 (LXXEN)
For thus saith the Lord God; When I shall make *Alex. thee a desolate city the city desolate, as the cities that shall not be inhabited, when I have brought the deep up upon thee,
Ezekiel 26 : 20 (LXXEN)
and great waters shall cover thee; and I shall bring thee down to them that go down to the pit, to the people of old time, and shall cause thee to dwell in the depths of the earth, as in everlasting desolation, with them that go down to the pit, that thou mayest not be inhabited, nor stand upon the land of life;
Ezekiel 26 : 21 (LXXEN)
I will make thee a destruction, and thou shalt be no more for ever, saith the Lord God.
