Isaiah 23:1-18
1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, you* ships of Tarshish, for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in. It is revealed to them from the land of Kittim.
2 Be still, you* inhabitants of the coast, you whom the merchants of Sidon, who pass over the sea, have replenished.
3 And on great waters the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue and she was the mart of nations.
4 Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins. 5 When the report comes to Egypt, they will be greatly pained at the report of Tyre. 6 Pass over to Tarshish. Wail, you* inhabitants of the coast. 7 Is this your* joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her afar off to journey?
8 Who has purposed this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are rulers, whose traders are the honored of the earth? 9 Jehovah of hosts has purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
10 Pass through your land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish, there is no restraint any more. 11 He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the kingdoms. Jehovah has given commandment concerning Canaan, to destroy the strongholds of it. 12 And he said, You will no more rejoice, O you oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, pass over to Kittim, even there will you have no rest.
13 Behold, the land of the Chaldeans. This people once was not. The Assyrian founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness. They set up their towers. They raised up the palaces of it. Then they made it a ruin. 14 Howl, you* ships of Tarshish, for your* stronghold is laid waste.
15 And it will happen in that day, that Tyre will be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. After the end of seventy years it will be to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute: 16 Take a harp, go about the city, you prostitute who has been forgotten. Make sweet melody, sing many songs, that you may be remembered.
17 And it happened after the end of seventy years, that Jehovah examined Tyre and she has repented of her gift, that she play the prostitute with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth. 18 And her merchandise and her pay will be holiness to Jehovah. It will not be treasured nor laid up, for her merchandise will be for those who dwell before Jehovah, to eat sufficiently and for durable clothing.
4 Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins. 5 When the report comes to Egypt, they will be greatly pained at the report of Tyre. 6 Pass over to Tarshish. Wail, you* inhabitants of the coast. 7 Is this your* joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her afar off to journey?
8 Who has purposed this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are rulers, whose traders are the honored of the earth? 9 Jehovah of hosts has purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.

Ezekiel 26:1-21
1 And it happened in the eleventh year, in the first day of the month, that the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
2 Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken, the gate of the peoples. She has turned around to me. I will be replenished, now that she is laid waste,
3 therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against you, O Tyre and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.
4 And they will destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her and make her a bare rock. 5 She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea, for I have spoken it, says the lord Jehovah.
And she will become a spoil to the nations, 6 and her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword.
And they will know that I am Jehovah.
7 For thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I will bring upon Tyre, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, from the north, with horses and with chariots and with horsemen and a company and many people.
8 He will kill your daughters in the field with the sword. And he will make forts against you and cast up a mound against you and raise up the buckler against you. 9 And he will set his battering engines against your walls and with his axes he will break down your towers.
10 Because of the abundance of his horses their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen and of the wagons and of the chariots, when he will enter into your gates, as men enter into a city in which a breach is made.
11 With the hoofs of his horses he will tread down all your streets. He will kill your people with the sword and the pillars of your strength will go down to the ground. 12 And they will make a spoil of your riches and make a prey of your merchandise. And they will break down your walls and destroy your desirable houses and they will lay your stones and your timber and your dust in the midst of the waters.
13 And I will cause the roar of your songs to cease and the sound of your harps will no more be heard. 14 And I will make you a bare rock; you will be a place for the spreading of nets. You will be built no more, for I Jehovah have spoken it, says the lord Jehovah.
15 The lord Jehovah says thus to Tyre: Shall not the isles shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made in the midst of you? 16 Then all the rulers of the sea will come down from their thrones and lie aside their robes and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling. They will sit upon the ground and will tremble every moment and be astonished at you.
17 And they will take up a lamentation over you and say to you, How you are destroyed, who were inhabited by seafaring men, the renowned city that was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all who dwelt there! 18 Now the isles will tremble in the day of your fall. Yes, the isles that are in the sea will be dismayed at your departure.
19 For thus says the lord Jehovah: When I will make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when I will bring up the deep upon you and the great waters will cover you, 20 then I will bring you down with those who descend into the pit, to the people of old time and will make you to dwell in the nether parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old, with those who go down to the pit, that you not be inhabited. And I will set glory in the land of the living.
21 I will make you a horror and you will no more have any being. Though you are sought for, yet you will not be found again everlasting, says the lord Jehovah.
4 And they will destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her and make her a bare rock. 5 She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea, for I have spoken it, says the lord Jehovah.
And she will become a spoil to the nations, 6 and her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword.
And they will know that I am Jehovah.
7 For thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I will bring upon Tyre, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, from the north, with horses and with chariots and with horsemen and a company and many people.

10 Because of the abundance of his horses their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen and of the wagons and of the chariots, when he will enter into your gates, as men enter into a city in which a breach is made.
11 With the hoofs of his horses he will tread down all your streets.

And I will set glory in the land of the living.
21 I will make you a horror and you will no more have any being. Though you are sought for, yet you will not be found again everlasting, says the lord Jehovah.
Joel 3:4-8
4 Yes and what are you* to me, O Tyre and Sidon and all the regions of Philistia? Will you* render me a recompense? And if you* recompense me, I will return your* recompense swiftly and speedily upon your* own head.
5 Inasmuch as you* have taken my silver and my gold and have carried into your* temples my desirable precious things, 6 and have sold the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem to the sons of the Grecians, that you* may remove them far from their border, 7 behold, I will stir them up out of the place where you* have sold them and will return your* recompense upon your* own head. 8 And I will sell your* sons and your* daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah and they will sell them to the men of Sheba, to a nation far off. For Jehovah has spoken it.
