1. This message is the word of the Lord.The message is against the land of Hadrachand the city of Damascus.The tribes of Israel and all peoplebelong to the Lord.
2. The message is also against the city of Hamath, on the border,and against Tyre and Sidon, with their skill.
3. Tyre has built a strong wall for herself.She has piled up silver like dustand gold like the mud in the streets.
4. But the Lord will take away all she hasand destroy her power on the sea.That city will be destroyed by fire.
