Ezekiel 27:31-33

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³¹ they make themselves bald for you,
    and gird themselves with sackcloth,
and they weep over you in bitterness of soul,
    with bitter mourning.
³² In their wailing they raise a lamentation for you,
    and lament over you:
‘Who was ever destroyed^[a] like Tyre
    in the midst of the sea?
³³ When your wares came from the seas,
    you satisfied many peoples;
with your abundant wealth and merchandise
    you enriched the kings of the earth.
