“Your oarsmen have brought you onto the high seas, but the east wind will shatter you in the heart of the sea.”
Ezekiel 27:26 (BSB)
Context Reading
24In your marketplace they traded with you fine garments of blue, embroidered work, and multicolored rugs with cords tightly twisted and knotted. 25The ships of Tarshish carried your merchandise. And you were filled with heavy cargo in the heart of the sea. 26Your oarsmen have brought you onto the high seas, but the east wind will shatter you in the heart of the sea. 27Your wealth, wares, and merchandise, your sailors, captains, and shipwrights, your merchants and all the warriors within you, with all the other people on board, will sink into the heart of the sea on the day of your downfall. 28The countryside will shake when your sailors cry out.
