[1] 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. [2] Be still, you inhabitants of the coast, you whom the merchants of Sidon that pass over the sea have replenished. [3] On great waters, the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue. She was the market of nations. [4] Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, “I have not travailed, nor given birth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins.” [5] When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish at the report of Tyre. [6] Pass over to Tarshish! Wail, you inhabitants of the coast! [7] Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her far away to travel? [8] Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the honorable of the earth? [9] Yahweh of Armies has planned it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth. [10] Pass through your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish. There is no restraint any more. [11] He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the kingdoms. Yahweh has ordered the destruction of Canaan’s strongholds. [12] He said, “You shall rejoice no more, you oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, pass over to Kittim. Even there you will have no rest.” [13] Behold, the land of the Chaldeans. This people didn’t exist. The Assyrians founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness. They set up their towers. They overthrew its palaces. They made it a ruin. [14] Howl, you ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste! [15] It will come to pass in that day that Tyre will be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. After the end of seventy years it will be to Tyre like in the song of the prostitute. [16] Take a harp; go about the city, you prostitute that has been forgotten. Make sweet melody. Sing many songs, that you may be remembered. [17] It will happen after the end of seventy years that Yahweh will visit Tyre. She will return to her wages, and will play the prostitute with all the kingdoms of the world on the surface of the earth. [18] Her merchandise and her wages will be holiness to Yahweh. It will not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise will be for those who dwell before Yahweh, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.
King James Version
[1] The burden H4853 of Tyre. H6865Howl, H3213 ye ships H591 of Tarshish; H8659 for H3588 it is laid waste, H7703 so that there is no house, H1004 no entering in: H935 from the land H776 of Chittim H3794 it is revealed H1540 to them. [2] Be still, H1826§ ye inhabitants H3427 of the isle; H339 thou whom the merchants H5503 of Zidon, H6721 that pass over H5674 the sea, H3220 have replenished. H4390 [3] And by great H7227 waters H4325 the seed H2233 of Sihor, H7883 the harvest H7105 of the river, H2975 is her revenue; H8393 and she is a mart H5505 of nations. H1471 [4] Be thou ashamed, H954 O Zidon: H6721 for H3588 the sea H3220 hath spoken, H559 even the strength H4581 of the sea, H3220 saying, H559 I travail H2342 not, nor bring forth children, H3205 neither do I nourish up H1431 young men, H970 nor bring up H7311 virgins. H1330 [5] As at the report H8088 concerning Egypt, H4714 so shall they be sorely pained H2342 at the report H8088 of Tyre. H6865 [6] Pass ye over H5674 to Tarshish; H8659 howl, H3213 ye inhabitants H3427 of the isle. H339 [7] Is this your joyous H5947 city, whose antiquity H6927 is of ancient H6924 days? H3117 her own feet H7272 shall carry H2986 her afar off H7350§ to sojourn. H1481 [8] Who hath taken this counsel H3289 against H5921 Tyre, H6865 the crowning H5849 city, whose merchants H5503 are princes, H8269 whose traffickers H3667 are the honourable H3513 of the earth? H776 [9] The Lord H3068 of hosts H6635 hath purposed H3289 it, to stain H2490§ the pride H1347 of all glory, H6643 and to bring into contempt H7043 all H3605 the honourable H3513 of the earth. H776 [10] Pass H5674 through thy land H776 as a river, H2975 O daughter H1323 of Tarshish: H8659 there is no more strength. H4206§ [11] He stretched out H5186 his hand H3027 over the sea, H3220 he shook H7264 the kingdoms: H4467 the Lord H3068 hath given a commandment H6680 against the merchant H3667 city,§ to destroy H8045 the strong H4581 holds H4581§ thereof. [12] And he said, H559 Thou shalt no more H3254 rejoice, H5937 O thou oppressed H6231 virgin, H1330 daughter H1323 of Zidon: H6721 arise, H6965 pass over H5674 to Chittim; H3794 there H8033 also H1571 shalt thou have no rest. H5117 [13] Behold H2005 the land H776 of the Chaldeans; H3778 this H2088 people H5971 was not, till the Assyrian H804 founded H3245 it for them that dwell in the wilderness: H6728 they set up H6965 the towers H971 thereof, they raised up H6209 the palaces H759 thereof; and he brought H7760 it to ruin. H4654 [14] Howl, H3213 ye ships H591 of Tarshish: H8659 for H3588 your strength H4581 is laid waste. H7703 [15] And it shall come to pass in that day, H3117 that Tyre H6865 shall be forgotten H7911 seventy H7657 years, H8141 according to the days H3117 of one H259 king: H4428 after the end H7093 of seventy H7657 years H8141 shall Tyre H6865 sing H7892 as an harlot. H2181§ [16] Take H3947 an harp, H3658 go about H5437 the city, H5892 thou harlot H2181 that hast been forgotten; H7911 make sweet H3190 melody, H5059 sing many H7235 songs, H7892 that thou mayest be remembered. H2142 [17] And it shall come to pass after the end H7093 of seventy H7657 years, H8141 that the Lord H3068 will visit H6485 H853 Tyre, H6865 and she shall turn H7725 to her hire, H868 and shall commit fornication H2181 with H854 all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the world H776 upon H5921 the face H6440 of the earth. H127 [18] And her merchandise H5504 and her hire H868 shall be holiness H6944 to the Lord: H3068 it shall H686 not H3808 be treasured H686 nor laid up; H2630 for H3588 her merchandise H5504 shall be for them that dwell H3427 before H6440 the Lord, H3068 to eat H398 sufficiently, H7654 and for durable H6266§ clothing. H4374
