1And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

3Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth his waves to come up.
4And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus, and break down her towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rock.

6And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
