13 Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes!

1 The oracle of Tyre:
Wail, ships of Tarshish, for ⌊the house is destroyed so that no one can enter⌋;* it is announced to them from the land of Cyprus. 2 Be still, inhabitants of the coast, merchant of Sidon, who travels over the sea, they filled you. 3 And on the great waters is the seed of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile is its produce, and she was the merchandise of the nations. 4 Be ashamed, Sidon, for the sea, the fortress of the sea said, saying, "I was not in labor, and I have not given birth, and I have not reared young men, brought* up young women." 5 When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish at the report ⌊about⌋* Tyre. 6 Cross over to Tarshish! Wail, inhabitants of the coast! 7 ⌊Is this your exultant one⌋,* her origin from the days of long ago? Her feet brought her to dwell afar as an alien. 8 Who has planned this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns,* whose merchants were princes, her traders the honored ones of the earth? 9 Yahweh of hosts has planned it: to defile the pride of all glory, to humble all the honored ones of the earth. 10 Cross over your own land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish; there is no longer a harbor.* 11 He has stretched his hand out over the sea; he has made kingdoms shake. Yahweh has commanded concerning Canaan to destroy her fortresses. 12 And he said,
"You will not ⌊continue⌋* to exult, crushed one, ⌊virgin⌋* daughter of Sidon. Arise, cross over to Cyprus! There will be no rest for you even there." 13 Look at the land of the Chaldeans! ⌊This people no longer exists. Assyria destined⌋* it for wild animals. They erected its siege towers; they demolished its citadel fortresses. It made her like a ruin. 14 Wail, ships of Tarshish! For your fortress is destroyed. 15 And this will happen on that day: And Tyre will be forgotten seventy years,*
like the days of one king. At the end of seventy years,* it will be for Tyre like the song of the prostitute: 16 "Take a harp, go around the city, forgotten prostitute! Do it well, playing a stringed instrument! Make numerous songs,* that you may be remembered." 17 And this shall happen:
at the end of seventy years,* Yahweh will visit Tyre,
and she will return to her harlot's wages, and she will commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth. 18 And this shall happen:
her merchandise and her harlot's wages will be set apart for Yahweh;
it will not be stored up, and it will not be hoarded, but her merchandise will be for those who live before the ⌊presence⌋* of Yahweh, for eating to satiation and for fine clothing.

Ezekiel 26:1-28:26
1 And it was in the ⌊eleventh⌋* year, on the first day of the month, the word of Yahweh ⌊came⌋* to me, ⌊saying⌋,*
2 "Son of man,* because* Tyre said concerning Jerusalem, 'Ah! The gates of the peoples are broken; it has swung open to me; I shall be filled, for it lies in ruins!'
3 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: 'Look! I am against you, Tyre, and I will bring up against you many nations like the stirring up of the sea ⌊stirring up its waves⌋.*
4 And I will destroy the walls of Tyre, and they will demolish its towers, and I will scrape away its earthen dirt from it, and I will make it into ⌊a bare rock⌋.*
5 It will become a place for spreading out dragnets in the midst of the sea; for I have spoken,' ⌊declares⌋* the Lord Yahweh. 'And it will become as plunder for the nations,
6 and its daughters who are in the field with the sword, they will be killed; and they will know that I am Yahweh.'"
7 For thus says the Lord Yahweh: "Look! I am bringing to Tyre Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, from the north, the king of kings, with horse and with chariot and with horsemen and his assembly and many people.
8 Your daughters he will kill in the field with the sword, and he will place* against you siege works, and he will build against you a siege ramp, and he will raise against you a shield,
9 and the thrust of his battering ram he will direct against your walls, and your towers he will break down with his weapons.
10 From the abundance of his horses he will cover you with their fine dust; at the sound of horseman and wheel and chariot your walls will shake, at his coming into your gates like the entrance of a city that is being broken through.
11 With the hooves of his horses he will trample all of your streets. He will kill your people with the sword, and ⌊your strong stone pillars⌋* will tumble down to the earth.
12 And they will plunder your wealth, and they will loot your merchandise, and they will break down your walls, and the houses of your delight they will break down, and your stones and your timbers and your earthen dirt they will cast into the midst of the water.
13 And, I will put an end to the noise of your songs, and the sound of your lyres will not be heard any longer.
14 And I will make you into ⌊a bare rock⌋,* a place for the spreading out of dragnets. You will not be built again, for I, Yahweh, I have spoken," ⌊declares⌋* the Lord Yahweh.
15 Thus says the Lord Yahweh to Tyre, "Will not the coastlands shake from the sound of your downfall, at the groaning of the wounded, ⌊at people being killed⌋* in the midst of you?
16 And all the princes of the sea will go down from their thrones, and they will remove their robes, and their ⌊beautiful garments⌋* of finished cloth they will take off. With terror they will be clothed, and on the ground they will sit, and they will tremble ⌊continually⌋,* and they will be appalled over you.
17 And they will raise a lament over you, and they will say to you,
'How you have been lost who was inhabited from* the seas; the city that was praised, that was strong. It is located on the sea, and its inhabitants imposed their terror ⌊on all of its inhabitants⌋.* 18 Now the coastlands will tremble at the day of your downfall, and the islands that are in the sea will be horrified because of your departure.'" 19 For thus says the Lord Yahweh: "When I make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when bringing up over you the deep, the ⌊great surging waters⌋* will cover you. 20 And I will bring you down with those who are going down to the grave,* ⌊an ancient people⌋,* and I will cause you to dwell in the world* of the depths, in the ruins from of old with those who are going down to the grave,* so that you will not be inhabited and ⌊have a place⌋* in the land of the living. 21 Sudden terrors I will bring on you, and you shall no longer exist; and you will be sought, and you will not be found again ⌊forever⌋,"* ⌊declares⌋* the Lord Yahweh.

Joel 3:4-8
4 What are you to me, O Tyre and O Sidon, and all of the regions of Philistia? Are you repaying to me what is deserved? If you are recompensing me, I will return swiftly and quickly what you deserve on your head!
5 For you have taken my silver and my gold, and my beautiful treasures you have carried into your temples.
6 And the sons of Judah and Jerusalem you sold to the sons of the Greeks, in order to remove them from their border.
7 Look! I am rousing them from the place where you have sold them, and I will return what you deserve on your head!
8 I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans and to a nation far away, for Yahweh has spoken.
Matthew 11:20-23
20 Then he began to reproach the towns in which the majority of his miracles had been done, because they did not repent:
21 "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22 Nevertheless I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and for Sidon on the day of judgment than for you!
23 And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades! For if the miracles done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until today.
Mark 8:22-26
22 And they came to Bethsaida. And they brought to him a blind man and implored him that he would touch him.
23 And he took hold of the blind man's hand and* led him outside the village, and after* spitting in his eyes, he placed his hands on him and* asked him, "Do you see anything?"
24 And looking up he said, "I see people, for I see them* like trees walking around."
25 Then he placed his* hands on his eyes again, and he opened his eyes and was cured, and could see everything clearly.
26 And he sent him to his home, saying, "Do not even go into the village."
Luke 9:10-17
10 And when they* returned, the apostles described to him all that they had done. And he took them along and* withdrew privately to a town called Bethsaida.
11 But when* the crowds found out, they followed him, and welcoming them, he began to speak* to them about the kingdom of God, and he cured those who had need of healing.
12 Now the day began to be far spent, and the twelve came up and* said to him, "Send away the crowd so that they can go into the surrounding villages and farms to obtain lodging and find provisions, because we are here in a desolate place.
13 But he said to them, "You give them something to eat!" And they said, "⌊We have no⌋* more than five loaves and two fish, unless perhaps we go and* purchase food for all these people."
14 (For there were about five thousand men.) So he said to his disciples, "Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each."
15 And they did so, and had them all sit down.
16 And taking the five loaves and the two fish, and* looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke them and began giving* them* to the disciples to set before the crowd.
17 And they all ate and were satisfied, and what was left over was picked up by them—twelve baskets of broken pieces.

"If the Lord of hosts had not left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom and would have resembled Gomorrah."* 30 What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, attained righteousness—even the righteousness that is by faith. 31 But Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, did not attain to the law. 32 Why that? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if by works. They stumbled over the ⌊stone that causes people to stumble⌋*, 33 just as it is written,
"Behold, I am laying in Zion ⌊a stone that causes people to stumble⌋*, and ⌊a rock that causes them to fall⌋*, and the one who believes in him will not be put to shame."*

Romans 11:8-11
8 just as it is written,
"God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that do not see and ears that do not hear, until this very day."* 9 And David says,
"Let their table become a snare and a trap, and a cause for stumbling and a retribution to them; 10 let their eyes be darkened so that they do not see, and cause their backs to bend ⌊continually⌋*."* 11 I say then, they did not stumble so that they fell, did they?* May it never be! But by their trespass, salvation has come to the Gentiles, in order to provoke them to jealousy.*
