The Burden of
Tyre .
Howl
, ye
ships of Tarshish, For it
hath
been
destroyed
, Without house ,
without
entrance,
From the land of Chittim
it
was
revealed
to
them
.
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
.
Be silent, ye
inhabitants
of the isle
, Trader
of Zidon
, passing
the sea ,
they
filled
thee
.
Be silent, O
dwellers
of the coastland
, you
merchants
of Sidon
, whose
traders
have
crossed
the sea.
And
in
many
waters `is'
the seed
of Sihor,
The harvest of the brook
`is'
her
increase,
And
she is
a
mart
of nations.
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.
Be ashamed, O Zidon;
for
the
sea
spake
, The strength
of the sea, saying
: `
I have not been pained,
nor
have
I brought
forth,
Nor
have I
nourished
young men ,
`nor'
brought up virgins
. '
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
. ”
As
`at'
the report of
Egypt they
are
pained
, So
`at'
the report
of Tyre.
When
the report reaches
Egypt, they
will
writhe
in
agony
over
the news
of Tyre.
Pass
over to Tarshish ,
howl
, ye
inhabitants of the isle,
Cross
over to Tarshish ;
wail
, O
inhabitants of the coastland!
Is this your exulting
one?
From
the
days
of
old
`
is '
her
antiquity, Carry
her
do
her
own
feet afar
off
to sojourn.
Is this your jubilant
city,
whose
origin
is from
antiquity, whose
feet have
taken
her
to settle
far
away?
Who hath
counselled
this against Tyre, The crowning
one
, whose traders `
are '
princes, Her
merchants the honoured
of
earth? '
Who planned
this against Tyre, the bestower
of
crowns
, whose traders are princes, whose
merchants are
renowned
on
the earth?
Jehovah
of Hosts hath
counselled
it, To pollute
the
excellency
of
all beauty, To make
light
all the honoured
of earth.
The
LORD
of Hosts planned
it, to defile
all its
glorious
beauty, to disgrace
all the renowned
of the
earth.
Pass
through
thy
land as
a
brook
, Daughter of Tarshish ,
there is no more
a girdle
.
Cultivate
your
land like
the
Nile
, O
Daughter of Tarshish ;
there is no longer
a harbor
.
His
hand
He
hath
stretched out over the sea ,
He hath
caused
kingdoms to
tremble ,
Jehovah
hath
charged
concerning
the merchant
one,
To
destroy
her
strong
places
.
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
.
And
He saith
, `Thou
dost
not
add
any
more to
exult
, O oppressed one,
virgin daughter of Zidon,
To
Chittim
arise,
pass
over ,
Even there --
there
is
no rest for
thee
. '
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. ”
Lo,
the land of the Chaldeans --
this
people was
not,
Asshur
founded
it for the Ziim,
They
raised
its
watch-towers,
They lifted
up her
palaces ,
--
He
hath
appointed
her
for
a
ruin !
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 .
Howl
, ye
ships of Tarshish, For your strength
hath
been destroyed .
Wail
, O
ships of Tarshish, for your harbor
has
been destroyed !
And
it
hath
come
to
pass,
in
that
day,
That forgotten
is
Tyre seventy years ,
According
to
the days
of one
king
. At the end of seventy years there
is
to Tyre as the song of the harlot .
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 :
Take a
harp, go
round
the city, O forgotten harlot ,
play
well
, Multiply
song that
thou
mayest
be remembered.
“
Take up
your
harp, stroll
through
the city, O forgotten harlot .
Make
sweet
melody
, sing
many
a
song ,
so
you
will
be remembered. ”
And it
hath
come
to
pass,
At the end of seventy years Jehovah
inspecteth
Tyre
, And
she
hath
repented
of
her
gift,
That
she committed
fornication
With
all kingdoms
of
the earth
on the face of the ground
.
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
.
And
her merchandise
and her
gift
have
been
holy
to Jehovah,
Not treasured
up
nor
stored, For to those sitting
before Jehovah
is
her
merchandise,
To
eat
to
satiety
, and
for a
lasting
covering!
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.
