Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away {the punishment} thereof; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant: {the brotherly...: Heb. the covenant of brethren}

Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;

The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head {was} made bald, and every shoulder {was} peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against it:

The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before that Pharaoh smote Gaza. {Gaza: Heb. Azzah}

Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith the LORD, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolations.

And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles which {are} beyond the sea, {isles: or, region by the sea side}

In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah came this word unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, {and} in the fifth month, {that} Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, which {was} of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

Against Moab thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled: Kiriathaim is confounded {and} taken: Misgab is confounded and dismayed. {Misgab: or, the high place}

Concerning the Ammonites, thus saith the LORD; Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? why {then} doth their king inherit Gad, and his people dwell in his cities? {Concerning: or, Against} {their king: or, Melcom}

Son of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them;

Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah {is} like unto all the heathen;

Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken {that was} the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, {now} she is laid waste:

For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot. {shall Tyre...: Heb. it shall be unto Tyre as the song of an harlot}

But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you.

Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the children of Ammon, and Moab, and all {that are} in the utmost corners, that dwell in the wilderness: for all {these} nations {are} uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel {are} uncircumcised in the heart. {in the utmost...: Heb. cut off into corners, or, having the corners of their hair polled}
