Zechariah9:3
3 And Tyrus did build her self a strong hold , and heaped up silver as the dust , and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
Which was naturally a strong hold, scituate on a great rock in the Sea.
Fortified her self mightily, and then thought her self impregnable.
Gather'd Treasure, and laid it up, so that there was no end of it.
'Tis a proverbial speech, and speaks the very rich stores of their Gold and Silver, by which they might buy their peace, or maintain their War: So that here is Wisdom, Strength, and Treasure, the Master sinews of War, yet all these cannot profit them in the day of their calamities approaching.
