²⁶"Your rowers have brought youInto great waters;The east wind has broken youIn the heart of the seas. ²⁷Your wealth, your wares, your merchandise,Your sailors and your pilots,Your repairers of seams, your dealers in merchandise,And all your men of war who are in you,With all your assembly that is in your midst,Will fall into the heart of the seasOn the day of your downfall. ²⁸At the sound of the cry of your pilotsThe pasture lands will shake. ²⁹All who handle the oar,The sailors and all the pilots of the sea,Will come down from their ships;They will stand on the land, ³⁰And they will make their voice heard over youAnd will cry bitterly.They will cast dust on their heads;They will wallow in ashes. ³¹Also they will make themselves bald for youAnd gird themselves with sackcloth;And they will weep for you in bitterness of soulWith bitter mourning. ³²Moreover, in their wailing they will take up a lamentation for youAnd lament over you:‘Who is like Tyre,Like her who is silent in the midst of the sea? ³³When your wares went out from the seas,You satisfied a great number of peoples;With the greatness of your wealth and your merchandiseYou enriched the kings of earth. ³⁴Now that you are broken by the seasIn the depths of the waters,Your merchandise and all your assemblyHave fallen in the midst of you. ³⁵All the inhabitants of the coastlandsAre appalled at you,And their kings are horribly horrified;They are troubled in countenance.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The merchants among the people shall hiss at thee,.... As Tyre had done at Jerusalem, Ezekiel 26:2 as she hoped to make better markets upon the fall of Jerusalem, and therefore rejoiced at it; so these merchants upon her fall will hope that her trade will come into their hands, and therefore despise her, hiss, and laugh at her in her abject state. The Targum is,

"shall be astonished at thee;''

struck with wonder, and even with a stupor at her fall: "and thou shalt be a terror"; not only to thyself, but to kings and merchants, and to all the inhabitants of the isles, and to all that trade by sea; who will be struck with surprise and dread when they hear of thy destruction; see Revelation 18:9:

and never shall be any more; upon the same spot, and in the same grandeur and glory: some understand this only of a long time, as seventy years, when it was rebuilt; see Isaiah 23:15, it may respect its last destruction, since which it has not been, nor now is, or ever will be: this will be true of mystical Babylon, the antitype of Tyre,

Revelation 18:21.
