27:1And the word of the lord came to me, saying,

27:2And you, O son of man, take a lamentation against Sor.

27:3And you shall say to Sor, to the one dwelling upon the entrance of the sea, to the market-place of the peoples from many islands, Thus says Adonai the lord to Sor, You said, I invested myself with my beauty.

27:4In the heart of the sea are your borders, your sons invested to you beauty.

27:24bringing trade of blue, and choice treasures being bound in rough cords, and cypress.

27:25Boats among them were your merchants in the abundance of your consolidations. And you were filled up and weighed down exceedingly in the heart of the seas.

27:26Your oarsmen led you into much water; the wind of the south broke you in the heart of the sea.

27:27Your force, and your wage, and your consolidations, and your oarsmen, and your navigators, and your counselors, and your consolidations from out of your consolidations, and all the men, your warriors among you; and your whole gathering in the midst of you shall fall in the heart of the sea in the day of your downfall.

27:28At the sound of your cry your navigators shall be afraid with fear.

27:29And all your oarsmen shall go down from their boats, and the crewmen, and the captains of the sea; they shall stand upon the ground.

27:30And they shall shout over you with their voice, and shall cry out bitterly, and shall place earth upon their head, and shall spread a bed of ashes.

27:31And they shall shave because of you unto baldness; and they shall gird on sackcloth, and shall weep over you in bitterness of life, even lamenting bitterly.

27:32Their sons shall take a lamentation over you and a wailing, Sor, Who is as Tyre observing silence in the middle of the sea?

27:33How much wage did you find from the sea? You filled up nations from your abundance, and from your consolidation you enriched all the kings of the earth.

27:34But now you are broken in the sea; your consolidation and all your gathering is in the depth of the water in your midst. All your oarsmen fell.

27:35All the ones dwelling the islands shall be gloomy over you, and their kings shall be amazed with a change of state, and their countenance shall burst into tears.

27:36Merchants from the nations whistled at you; you became for destruction, and no longer will you be into the eon.
