The siege of the inland city of Tyre was so intense and strenuous that the heads of Nebuchadnezzar’s troops were made bald by the chafing of their helmets and their shoulders were rubbed bare from carrying building materials for towers and fortifications. ​ — Ezekiel 26: 7 - 12.
Tiras cietzemes daļas aplenkums bija tik intensīvs un nogurdinošs, ka Nebukadnecara karavīru galvas kļuva kailas no bruņucepuru trīšanās un pleci tika noberzti, nesot aplenkuma torņiem un vaļņiem vajadzīgos materiālus. ( Ecēhiēla 26: 7 — 12.)
