Ezekiel 27:24-26
Contemporary English Version
24 and they gave you expensive clothing, purple and embroidered cloth, brightly colored rugs, and strong rope. 25 (A) Large, seagoing ships[a] carried your goods wherever they needed to go.
You were like a ship
loaded with heavy cargo
26 and sailing across the sea,
but you were wrecked
by strong eastern winds.
