Context — The Prophecy Against Tyregenerated

18By the multitude of your iniquities and the dishonesty of your trading you have profaned your sanctuaries. So I made fire come from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you.
19All the nations who know you are appalled over you. You have come to a horrible end and will be no more.’”
20Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
21“Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.

Ezekiel 28:19 reflects on the reaction of the nations to the downfall of a significant entity, emphasizing the horror and astonishment they feel. This passage follows a series of judgments against Tyre, illustrating the consequences of its iniquities and the resulting desolation that leads to its complete destruction, as noted in Ezekiel 28:18.

The Key Word שָׁמְמ֖וּ, sha.me.Mugenerated

The verb שָׁמֵם (shamem) means to be desolated or appalled. It conveys a sense of devastation and horror, often used to describe the aftermath of destruction or calamity. In this verse, it indicates the shock and dismay of the nations witnessing the downfall of a once-great power.

The form here is the perfect tense, third person plural, indicating that the nations are currently experiencing this horror as a result of the events described. This emphasizes the ongoing impact of the destruction on their perception.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The finite verb יוֹדְעֶ֙יךָ֙, yod.'Ei.kha (to know), governs the main clause, indicating the subject (the nations) and their action. Following this verb, a prepositional phrase עָלֶ֑יךָ (on you) specifies the object of their horror.

The structure highlights the nations' awareness and their reaction, culminating in the description of the subject's fate, which is presented in a straightforward manner, emphasizing the finality of the statement.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates שָׁמְמ֖וּ as στυγνάσουσιν, which conveys a similar sense of being horrified or appalled. This choice reflects a direct interpretation of the Hebrew term, maintaining the emotional weight of the nations' reaction to the destruction.

The use of the term in the LXX aligns closely with the Hebrew meaning, reinforcing the theme of desolation and the impact of the judgment.


In plain words — the whole versegenerated
