This
is
the burden against
Tyre :
Wail
, O
ships of Tarshish ,
for Tyre
is laid waste, without
house or
harbor.
Word
has
reached
them
from the land of Cyprus
.
The burden of
Tyre .
Howl
, you
ships of Tarshish ;
for it
is laid waste, so
that
there
is
no
house ,
no
entering
in:
from the land of Kittim
it
is
revealed
to
them
.
Be silent
, O
dwellers
of the coastland
, you merchants of Sidon, whose
traders
have
crossed
the sea.
Be still
, you
inhabitants
of the coast
, you whom
the
merchants of Sidon, that
pass
over
the sea ,
have
replenished
.
On the
great waters came
the grain
of Shihor ;
the harvest of the Nile was the
revenue of
Tyre
; she was the merchant
of the
nations.
On great waters the seed
of the
Shihor ,
the harvest of the Nile ,
was her
revenue; and
she was the market
of nations.
Be ashamed, O
Sidon, the stronghold of the sea, for
the
sea
has
spoken:
“
I have not been
in
labor
or
given
birth.
I
have not
raised
young men or
brought up young
women
. ”
Be ashamed, Sidon ;
for
the
sea
has
spoken
, the stronghold of the sea, saying,
I have not travailed,
nor
brought
forth,
neither
have I
nourished
young men ,
nor
brought up virgins
.
When the report reaches
Egypt, they will
writhe
in
agony
over
the news
of Tyre.
When the report comes
to
Egypt, they shall
be
sorely
pained
at
the report
of Tyre.
Cross
over to Tarshish; wail, O
inhabitants of the coastland!
Pass
over to Tarshish; wail, you
inhabitants of the coast.
Is this your jubilant
city, whose origin
is
from
antiquity, whose feet have
taken
her to settle
far
away
?
Is this your joyous
[
city ]
, whose antiquity is
of
ancient
days
, whose feet carried
her afar
off
to sojourn
?
Who planned
this against Tyre, the bestower
of crowns, whose traders
are princes, whose merchants
are renowned
on
the earth?
Who has
purposed
this against Tyre, the giver
of crowns, whose merchants
are princes, whose traffickers
are the honorable
of
the
earth?
The
LORD
of Hosts planned
it, to defile
all its
glorious
beauty
, to disgrace
all the renowned
of the earth.
Yahweh
of hosts has
purposed
it, to stain
the
pride
of
all glory
, to bring
into
contempt
all the honorable
of the earth.
Cultivate
your land like
the Nile, O
Daughter of Tarshish; there is no longer
a
harbor
.
Pass
through
your land as
the Nile, daughter of Tarshish; there is no restraint
any
more
.
The
LORD
has stretched out His hand over the sea ;
He has made
kingdoms tremble.
He
has given a
command
that
the strongholds of Canaan
be
destroyed
.
He
has stretched out his hand over the sea ,
he has shaken
the
kingdoms :
Yahweh
has given commandment
concerning
Canaan,
to
destroy
the strongholds of it
.
He said, “
You shall rejoice
no more, O
oppressed Virgin Daughter of Sidon .
Get
up
and
cross
over to Cyprus—
even there you will
find
no rest. ”
He said, You shall no more rejoice
, you
oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon :
arise,
pass
over to Kittim;
even there shall
you have
no rest.
Look
at
the land of the Chaldeans —
a
people now
of
no
account.
The Assyrians
destined
it for the desert
creatures
; they set up their siege
towers and
stripped
its
palaces .
They brought
it to
ruin.
Behold,
the land of the Chaldeans :
this
people was
not;
the Assyrian
founded
it for those
who
dwell
in
the wilderness
; they set up their towers ;
they
overthrew
the
palaces of
it;
they made
it a
ruin.
Wail
, O
ships of Tarshish ,
for your harbor
has
been
destroyed!
Howl
, you
ships of Tarshish ;
for your stronghold
is
laid
waste.
At
that time
Tyre will
be forgotten for
seventy years —
the span
of a
king’s
life.
But
at
the end of seventy years ,
it will
happen
to Tyre as in the song of the harlot:
It
shall
come
to
pass
in
that day,
that
Tyre shall
be forgotten seventy years ,
according
to
the days
of one
king:
after
the end of seventy years it shall
be
to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute.
“
Take up
your
harp, stroll
through
the city, O
forgotten harlot.
Make sweet melody, sing many a
song
, so
you will
be remembered. ”
Take a
harp, go
about
the city, you
prostitute
that
has
been
forgotten ;
make sweet melody, sing many songs
, that
you may
be remembered.
And
at
the end of seventy years, the
LORD
will restore
Tyre .
Then
she will
return to hire as
a
prostitute
and sell
herself
to
all the kingdoms on the face
of the earth.
It
shall
happen
after
the end of seventy years, that
Yahweh
will visit
Tyre ,
and
she shall
return to her
hire ,
and shall
play
the
prostitute
with
all the kingdoms of
the
world
on the surface
of the earth.
Yet
her profits
and wages
will
be set
apart
to the
LORD;
they
will
not be stored
or
saved,
for her profit
will
go
to
those who live
before the
LORD
, for
abundant
food
and fine
clothing.
Her merchandise
and her
hire
shall
be holiness
to Yahweh:
it
shall
not be treasured
nor
laid
up;
for her merchandise
shall
be
for
those who dwell
before Yahweh
, to
eat
sufficiently,
and for
durable
clothing.
