29All who handle the oars will abandon their ships. The sailors and all the captains of the sea will stand on the shore. 30They will raise their voices for you and cry out bitterly. They will throw dust on their heads and roll in ashes. 31They will shave their heads for you and wrap themselves in sackcloth. They will weep over you with anguish of soul and bitter mourning. 32As they wail and mourn over you, they will take up a lament for you: ‘Who was ever like Tyre, silenced in the middle of the sea? 33When your wares went out to sea, you satisfied many nations. You enriched the kings of the earth with your abundant wealth and merchandise.
