“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:”
I will be against you, O Tyre, and will bring up many nations against you, as the sea brings up its waves, establishing God as Tyre's adversary and describing the mode of judgment through military invasion likened to waves. The simile compares enemy nations to sea waves, suggesting overwhelming, successive, and inevitable force that cannot be resisted or negotiated with. This metaphorical language evokes both the destructive power of nature and the inexorability of divine judgment, making resistance futile.
