And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus, and break down her towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rock.

Vulgate

καὶ καταβαλοῦσιν τὰ τείχη Σόρ, καὶ καταβαλοῦσι τούς πύργους σου, καὶ λικμήσω τὸν χοῦν αὐτῆς ἀπ’ αὐτῆς, καὶ δώσω αὐτὴν εἰς λεωπετρίαν·

And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre, and break down her towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her a bare rock.
