The merchants among the peoples hiss at you; you have come to a dreadful end and shall be no more forever, concluding the lament with the merchants' hissing (expressing contempt and rejection) and a final statement of perpetual obliteration. The contrast between the merchants who once crowded Tyre's ports and those who now hiss in contempt illustrates the complete reversal of her status. The phrase 'shall be no more forever' echoes the conclusion of chapter 26, emphasizing that Tyre's destruction is total and permanent.
