Ezekiel 26:5 in Context — Ezekiel 26

3 Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí yo contra ti, oh Tiro, y haré subir contra ti muchas gentes, como la mar hace subir sus ondas.

4 Y demolerán los muros de Tiro, y derribarán sus torres: y raeré de ella su polvo, y la dejaré como una peña lisa.

5 Tendedero de redes será en medio de la mar, porque yo he hablado, dice el Señor Jehová: y será saqueada de las gentes.

6 Y sus hijas que están en el campo, serán muertas á cuchillo; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.

7 Porque así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí que del aquilón traigo yo contra Tiro á Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, rey de reyes, con caballos, y carros, y caballeros, y compañías, y mucho pueblo.
