Who was

silenced
in the middle
of the sea?

a
lamentation,

have
lamented
over
thee,
who `is'
as
Tyre ?
As
the
cut-off
one
in the midst
of the sea?
When
your
wares
went
out
to

With
the outgoing
of thy
remnants
from

Thou
hast
filled
many
peoples,
With the
abundance
of
thy
riches,
and thy
merchandise ,
Thou
hast
made
rich
things
of
earth
.
Now
you
are
shattered
by the seas in the depths of the waters ;
your
merchandise and the
people
among
you
have gone
down
with
you
.
The
time
of
`thy'
being
broken
by the seas in the depths of the waters ,
Thy
merchandise and all
thy
assembly
in
thy
midst
have fallen
.
All the
people
of the coastlands
are
appalled
over
you.
Their kings shudder
with
fear;
their
faces
are
contorted
.
All inhabitants
of the isles
have
been
astonished
at
thee,
And
their kings have
been
sore
afraid,
They
have
been
troubled
in
countenance
.
Those
who
trade
among the nations
hiss
at
you;
you
have come
to
a
horrible
end
and will
be
no
more.’”
Merchants
among the peoples
have shrieked
for
thee,
Wastes
thou
hast
been,
and thou
art
not
--
to
the
age!'
